Hi all fellow 1.9 CDTI 150 owners,
I've just replaced my front Continental Contact 3s after 16000 miles with inside edges worn to near bald, with Bridgestones. National Tyres checked alignment and confirmed that although both front hubs' camber angles are -1 to - 1.5 deg, they arein tolerance. They adjusted toe-in/out of +0.4 to zero. I hope that this and tyre type change will improve the wear trend, but remain concerned that wear in the suspension may be indicated by the camber angles. Have any of you guys experienced similar problems? Regards, Jim, Oxford.
