Do you have Kwik fit in Ireland? Most branches over here have the Hunter equipment now. I used them & was happy with the results. Think it cost around £80.

Hi
You also need to ensure the vehicle is locked into tight tolerance mode, this needs to be done to ensure the suspension does not move more than 3mm, also engine needs to be tprunning, just using a hunter does not work.Cheers

Tight tolerance mode. You have to get it done via the OBD post and a diagnostic tool. Just stops the suspension from self adjusting while on the machine

I have an IID tool that allows access to all sorts of hidden functions, this being one of them. If you need your alignment correcting, may be worth thinking about a Land Rover dealer to resolve this for you, at least it will be done correctly.Cheers

Just because a LR dealer is doing does not guarantee it being done properly! ive spoken to my dealer about it and they never use tight tolerance mode. I also used the dealers own tyre place to get an alignment done and they left it worse. Im still looking for somewhere in northern Ireland who can do it properly and get it right first time.

I know of several LR Dealers that outsource 4 wheel alignment to a local tyre place around the corner so make sure they do it themselves if you go down the LR Dealer road. SOLD - 23my Range Rover Sport D300 Dynamic SE
