Hmm. Did you read the thread?

Handing them 'some pages from an online forum' is a losing proposition. They really dont care, they arent going to 'do the work'...and notably they are trained to think 'people on the internet are idiots'. (many are)


YOU need to establish your own authority... once you know what you are doing, and feel comfortable demanding what YOU want, then tell them. Dont hand them posts.


Here, let me help. This is from the current BMW TIS, so this is what BMW publishes. Not sure where that page you have comes from. (actually it is from the vendor of the alignment machine, and they will claim "oh this is from BMW factory". They are wrong...)




So you see that toe spec??


.14 +/- .12.... this means .02 up to .26


14 minus 12 is 2
14 plus 12 is 26

So my recommendation is, in fact, technically within the BMW spec! Crazy, eh?
