I went and took mums car to my Local Tyre Company for a Slow Punture on the front offside and the tracking, After I put a New driveshaft,Wishbone,Anti-Roll bar,Bushes,Surpporting link bars on the car.
They found a small panel Pin in the tyre, they it went for tracking.
Drove the car onto the Ramps, took it up. Then the Guy put on the Lazer traking kit on, and he said that the Rear of the car is 5 Dec out to the Front, so i said the rear of the car is Fixed, he said no He undo the two Bolts on the subframe then he done it up, then he adjusted the fronts.

Now have you ever this before Rear tracking.
Car: Standard Ford Focus Hatchback W reg 2000 year.
Cheers for now.

 

Yes it's true and is becoming all more common now but the Focus was one of the first with it's revolutionary 'Control Blade' rear suspension it also sports 'Passive rear steering'.

Thank You for your reply Martin. 'Passive rear steering'. is very new to hear on a Front wheel drive Standard Focus. I wounder if they will do on all cars and vans. I can under stand if the rear of the car is Crabbing, like i do see time to time on the older minis. but never on the modern cars of today. I learn somethink new every day.

Thanks again.

 

by the two bolts on the subframe do you mean the two in the centre that you can see looking under the car that hold the rear lower spring arms in??

if so these are the adjuster bolts for the rear toe which many modern cars have a similar system and is just as common to need adjusting as the front tracking so perfectly normal.
