Techgod Clutched March 29, 2020 Share March 29, 2020 Becareful with wheel alignment, doesn't mean the machine says all aligned, the car will go straight. Have past experiences where the mechanic just use the machine to align, the car still drift to the right with constant wear on the tyre. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have past experiences where the mechanic just use the machine to align, the car still drift to the right with constant wear on the tyre. Wheel aligner measure wheels at a static point whereas a side slip tester test the wheels in motions.It is best to do a final test with a side slip tester after setting all the wheel angles. With side slip test , the mech will have to do very small adjustment on the toe angles to reduce the wheels lateral pulling forces. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeobh 4th Gear March 30, 2020 Share March 30, 2020 Japan is first country to cooperated the Wheel Side slip Testing into the compulsory Vehicle inspection program. Singapore is the first outside Japan & Korea to start computerized vehicle inspection. Side slip testing is a major component in the testing and inspection program. Why side slip testing - it is due to road safety. Vehicles must not be allowed to move laterally more than 5m over a distant of 1km. Any movement more than 5m/km is considered unsafe and treated as a major fault resulting in over fail inspection. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got confused btw sideslip and Toe Read up on the relationship of wheel camber angle and toe setting - excess positive camber will cause the wheel to roll out . In order to prevent this happening , the wheel needs to have toe - in setting to get the wheel to roll straight ahead. When both front wheels develop different lateral forces the car will move side way either to the right or left depending on which wheel has a strongest lateral forces. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albeniz Turbocharged December 26, 2020 Share December 26, 2020 (edited) Just a quick check. During Vicom annual inspection, they also check the condition of your car wheel alignment right?
