      Gave these guys a call and found out that Awesome GTI in Manchester do full geometry setup and have all settings for all VAG cars (except newest RS6, R8 etc) stored in their machine.
      £67.50+VAT
      You get printouts etc.
      Don't know what they are like though.
      Forum visit to bring cost down????
      Anyone interested?
      Maybe combined with a RR session?

                This is the Autodata specs for the S6, there's no seperate listing for saloon and avant so I'd have to assume they are the same

                    hey guys,

                    ive been having some problems with my 2.6coupe over the past few months, last time it snowed real bad i ended up getting overly friendly with a curb and bent my wishbone. I promptly replaced it with a pressed one with a new ball joint, whilst i was there i did the same to both sides and also replaced the track rod ends and adjusters both sides too. I set the tracking right after but had no camber gauge until now. am i right in thinking that the camber adjustment is all in that bottom ball joint or are the nuts on the carrier excentric like on coilovers n such? I restore air cooled vw's for a living so im used to shims and torsion bars haha. any help would be great,

                    cheers, Tom

                      Camber is adjusted with the position of the lower balljoints, strut bolts are just straight bolts however you can slack them off and move the position of the strut if you run out of camber adjustment at the ball joint.

                        Anyone used these guys. been past them a few times in the avant and used them for my coupe setup (but I had a knackered wishbone which was the problem in the end) so I cant really comment. they did gove good service. What about price? On par?

                        Should I have this done after all the bones have had powerflex put in or just after new wheels have gone on

                        Cheers

                              anyone requiring geo setup in the manchester area i have a beissbarth wheel alinement system. (camber/caster/toe)

                              charge £40per hour (forum/trade rate) if everything is free'd off can usually do all four wheels in and hour and a half.
