y5choi is on a distinguished road
I went in to drop the car off today, and the service manager was kind enough to entertain me on the subject of alignment. He said front camber and caster are really never adjusted on the X (by design) and the rear camber can be adjusted, although rear caster is not adjustable unless other parts (aftermarket) are used. Simply put, following the road camber while being driven is "normal". So when the dealer does alignment, it's really just the toe adjustment and that's it. He also kindly mentioned that "you get this 80,000 car and it pulls to the road camber, especially with wider tires, and you can't do much about it". How true...

I'd imagine that on an AWD, the toe angle would just be 0 on all fours. Any comments or thoughts?
