2013 RS alignment

[KGB Pilot125]

Stopped by the shop today and checked the alignment on my RS. Has 1400 mile s on it and just like I thought and have seen in the past, its close but could use some tweaking.

Here is a picture of my printout.

I will have to wait till we there is someone here to make adjustments while I am in the car. I will post more specs then.

it is very rare that the alignment is ideal from the factory, I was told once that they check 1 of every 50 vehicles or something like that at off the line and if its good they sign off on all of them. That makes sense but if you have ever seen how they tie them down on the transport or just banging them around the lot you could see how it could get knocked out.

Even if the right front comes back .01 degrees it would all be green and be "acceptable" for the factory but as you know it still leaves some room for improvement.

indeed, that makes sense from a production stand point.

I just figured it'd be alil closer. how long until you get it aligned?

KGB Pilot125, Sorry to hear this, but I'm sure the dealership will be able to correct your alignment concerns. I would be glad to schedule a service appointment for you. If so, please private message me your first and last name, the last 8-digits of your VIN, current mileage and your preferred dealership.

Please post an update afterward visiting the dealership.

I keep seeing alignments being off, not bad, but off. Considering there is no adjustability except for front toe, I would start to question the user and machine calibrations before jumping to conclusions...these errors are fairly common.
