New car - pulls to left a bit?

Hi

just picked up my new D3. It feels like its pulling to the left a bit compared with my other car. Is this just due to the four wheel drive on the camber?

Cheers
S

Hi

could be, check the tyre pressures, they are quite sensitive to them.

Which tyres have you got, some are worse than others?

Had the same issue myself, about every time it got near The Flag on a Friday pm it pulled to the left and I thought it best to pull over, do some safety "checks".... and a pint whilst i was there Rolling with laughter

Tyres are Pirelli Scorpion Zero if that helps - will check tyre pressure

it is usualy the wrangklers that get a bit more wandery as they age, but the Scorpions are teh grippeist so I suppose they mighht tramline more.

My Synchrones can definetely be surprisingly bad if the pressures are a bit out. Pressures back to normal and all is restored Thumbs Up
