Hi guys, I hope someone can give me some advice please.

I'm having a real hard time getting my GS450H aligned. It comes of the ramp with everything on spec but the moment I drive off the steering has to be held slightly to the right for the car to go straight!

Can the camber on this car be adjusted as I know with this I can get it right! Where are the bolts located to adjust camber please.

Has anyone else had issues getting their GS450H aligned?

My car so far has had 4 brand new tyres and I've had 3 different places now check the suspension components for wear but they all advise its perfect. 

Thanks in advance guys.

If the geometry is in spec and the steering wheel is off centre, firstly make sure whoever is doing the geo is adjusting the tracking evenly on both sides to maintain the steering centre. If that is all correct then make sure the steering ECU centre position is reset.

Thanks for the response, I'm going back at 1pm and I'll ask him to reset the steering position.

When I had an alignment done the guy held the steering in a straight position before making any adjustments

Standard practise but it doesn't really protect against the slight off-centre produced if the adjustment is one sided. There's too much give in the whole system
