I have an 04 TSX on buddy club N+ coilovers. Car is pretty low, slight tuck in front and rear. 19" wheels. Camber is -1.5 front and -4 in the rear. Its been pulling fairly hard to the right even after an alignment. Even when you pull to a stop, the steering wheel jerks to the right. The caster is out of range (and camber of course) which the service technician told me couldn't be adjusted and is the reason why my car is still pulling. According to the spec sheet, specified range for caster should be 2.5-4.0. My left is 4.1 and my right is 3.6. From my understanding, please correct me if I'm wrong, the caster has to be equal on both sides for the car not to pull. Spec sheet posted below

Searched around the forum and couldn't find any answers. Has anyone had similar issues or an idea of what I can try next?

Appreciate any input. Thanks!

Try exchanging your front tires left to right and vice versa to see if the problem is related to a bad tire. When did this all start?

 

Do what nbtx is recomending. that's the easiest step to trouble shoot issue. if switching the front left and front tire resolve the issue .. it's a bad tire. if it doesnt .. most likely it's the caster. also check your wheel bearing and brakes. bad wheel bearing can cause the pulling and also it'll make a noise like a deep humming noise. if brake pad is worn more on one side, possible issue .. highly unlikely tho.

Caster can be slightly adjusted, but not a whole lot. tech can losen the bolt that the lower sub frame is bolted to the frame of the car and push and retightened. I had this procedure done on my car and it did help caster spec a bit.

 

hey appreciate the input. ill give it a shot. my tires are directional so I'll have to figure something out. my brother has an extra set of winter wheels laying around. maybe i'll try that and see how it is. new wheels are on order and new tires will be put on then so maybe things will work out. thanks again

 

good luck with it. thats one thing i hate about directional tires.

do this .. since it's directional .. rotate your fronts to the rear. front right to rear right. see if that helps, assuming your rear doesnt have any problems.

 

your camber on the right needs to be a "higher" than the right. Your left is at -1.6d I would set the right side to 2.1 or so this would also change the spec side on the left. You can do a subframe shift toward the side that it pulls to. I really hate pulls myself. If you are able to get the car on a lift or jack stands. loosen the four subframe bols including the two bolts holding the front brackets on. use a pry bar and pry the rear of the sub frame on the left side of the chasis (theres a nice place to get lots of leverage there). as you're prying tighten the bolts at the same time.
Another option is have them do another alignment with a subframe shift(if they know what they're doing) I would also recommend an Eibach rear camber kit to address the camber specs in the rear

 

base on the zero difference on rear camber from left to right, the fact he's riding low, and tucked .. he already has rear camber kit.
