Tracking out, puncture and dsc cutting in....
Found a nice big screw in the front Ns tread yesterday slap bang in the middle, so off I toddled to Southam Tyres in um...... Southam
Turns out it hadn't gone through so not a puncture, but I didn't fAncy pulling it out to be followed by a hisssss
Got them to track it too, as although my Indy had done it when doing the track ends, I wanted peice of mind.
Blooming good job I did front driver side was way out

its due to go back to my Indy tomoz for a little job, and to correct the steering wheel wonk he had left, all though VERY slight, I knew it was there.
Needless to say he will be Instructed to leave it alone now as its all spot on
But will show him the picture of the tracking screen.
Dsc cut in on a long fast ish right hander on way home, wasn't too concerned as I run my ATs a few psi above book, and upon checking that particular tyre was 6psi below the rest
Can a badly tracked wheel affect MPG? as mine is still hovering around the 22mark
Mixed driving.
Done a brake temperature check when I got back too with a infrared thermometer
To check for binding pads, rears were about 30oc fronts in the 50's so seem normal
