Road Handling

[Andy-tom]

Hi everybody,

I have owned an is200 for about 3 years now, quality motoring must say.

Up until i had a bad do with black ice at 50 mph. which sent me skidding accross a dual carrage way up a curb and onto the other side of the carrage way.

I was ok but shaken, as for lexxy he was also shaken, i damaged the wheels and tyers of which i have replced and had them all ballanced and tracking set up.

The car drives staight as a dye no shaken at all. But when i have a blast out

at a ton + i am fighting with the car to keep it on the road.

In the snow there is no traction what so ever just stands still, could anybody shed some light on the problem and will it be expensive to repair.

Kind regards

I'm really sorry to hear this. As long as your okay...thats the main thing.

When you say you have had the tracking setup, what this just tracking OR a FULL GEOMETRY?

Sounds me like you should get a full geometry check done mate :D

Tyr this Link you can read all about it there. It will also give you info on where you can get it done, don't know if there is a recommended site around Teeside.

Dr Bones is the man and I am sure he will be along shortly :D

reads like a bad day? In the snow "nothing moves in the UK" when you say "fighting" with the car at a ton+ can you elaborate?

It feels as though you are on a water bed, if that makes sense

No sorry mate,no geometry report

[Tony-Bones]

If you didn't get a report after the repair then its not possible to conclude a resolve, somone let you down... we need a geometry report so that it can be removed from your compliant.

btw i cannot reply to your email? the address is denied?

The where "sadly" i cannot advise... just make sure its a "full" geometry not a "four wheel alignment" all we need is the test results, so keep the cost down for now forget about any adjustments... "if" any are needed then the cost will be down to the "repairer" LOC i'm sure can "hammer" that home :D
