Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

OPC changed my control arms, front, both. Problem was that they were squeaking and the noise was utterly annoying me - they found one of them to be loose and the other on the verge of breaking, so I decided to replace them. New problem is that I feel the car less planted and at very low speeds ( 5 to 7mph ) the car leans to the right. Also I get from time to time I get some hard turning when I get feisty on the brakes. Thing is - maybe this is normal and I had a perfectly setup car ? How anal should I be with OPC checking it ? The car drives well and only at very low speeds it is noticeable. I checked in the car for checking this tomorrow but Im afraid that they'll return the car on saturday and say "oh its normal".

POST 3Original post

I assume they did a full geometry check after fitting the new control arms ? If so they should have still on file their measurements, which should be in spec. If they haven't done the geometry then i suggest you go outside the OPC - for the same money Chris Franklin at Centre Gravity, or Parr motorsport will do a much better job.
