How often does allignment need to be done, I have only 29,000 on the car and its pulling to the right. If I am driving 55 it takes about 3-5 seconds before its pulling on to the shoulder. I just got tires rotated and balanced and its still doing it, and the tires only have 7500 miles on them. Is it probally serious, I am driving it to Florida and back on Tuesday, and there would not be enough time to take in to get looked at, unless its serious. It rides pretty smooth no shaking, steering wheel doesnt vibrate or shake, didnt hit any potholes or curbs. It 05 STi, stock rims, suspension. :eek3:
just go get an alignement done for safe keeping. especially if you're driving to FL and back..... also check your tire pressure, make sure they are all the same before the alignement.
sometimes thing just get messed up. but if you have been playing in the snow or on some dirt roads chances are you alignment is off. it doesnt take much... i just had my car aligned not too long ago, and i am scared to see what its at now (even though it doesnt pull)
Because of the " high performance aspects of the STi, is it more likely to get out of allignment, i.e is it more touchy to little changes, or aggresive driving.
Was it pulling before you had it rotated?? If not it could be a bad tire. Bad tires could cause pulls. If it was pulling before then its probably alignment issues.
Yep, check tire pressure first, if one is low it will pull, it could be that simple. Has it ever had an alignment? They can come pretty whacked out from the factory.
lol, its no more likely to need more alignments than any other car. Factory alignment tolerances are suprsingly loose though. factory pretty much allows for up to a 2 degree variance between different sides and whatever caster it has it has, it ain't adjustable.
