No this will be the second time at the same shop. But do you think the specs looks okay on the second picture? Have start to see sign of tirewear on the outside of the right wheel. One guy told me there should be more minus on the right camber than the left. Now it says -0°33 on Left camber And -0°14 on right camber. Should be -0°14 on left and -0°33 on right.? And what makes right sai (kpi) go high?

Hello i have a Legacy 3.0 2007 saloon wich pulling to right. Before the first wheel alinment the steeringwheel was as it should be but when i let it go the steeringwheel pointed about 5° to the right and the car goes at the same direction. Had a wheel alignment but there was not much to do because the rear link adjuster was rusted. Well i changed it with new bushings and bolts and new strutst and shocks back. At the front i replaced all the bushings at the transverse link, new front stabilizer and new bushing stabilizer. Had a new wheel alignment but still no good. Now the steeringwheel points 5° to the left when i drive straigh. And if i centerd the steeringwheeel the car goes to right. this is the wheel alignment specs in Swedish. Vanster=Left Hoger=Right

I might having the same problem. When turning the engine on it rotate about 8-10 times before start and sometimes only 2. But i also having this misfire sometimes only in the starting procedure. Runs great when driving with no misfires and no lack of power. Where do i find the check valve on my 2007 3.0?

Today when driving i hear this woshing running water sound from the heater core. Open the hood and noticed the coolant level on the expansion was about 1-2 cm higher than usual. Open up the radiatorcap and expected an explotion of coolant but nothing.

Update. Well i found out the problem. As in swdeden we say Handhavandefel (mishandling or personal screw up.) The setting on the light gun was not set correctly. Now it runs and timing is right. But now having this hard starting problem. At the morning when going to job it crank onte time and start. One hour later when start it crank crank crank crank crank and then start but runs bad for two seconds. Like poor fuel delivery. Cts sensor is new. Maf sensor is changed from a donor car. What is the most common problem? -
The symptoms i have is.. Misfires when warm but not all the times. When driving and make a kickdown a white cloud will appear behind the car. Do a kickdown again and no cloud appear. And this happen only one time when driving the car. Do not leak or dissapear water from the coolant overflow. It did before and i cahnge the radiator cap and it stop. Throwing pending code p0174. Do not overheat, never have. Me myselfe believe its a cracked head or headgasket. 16000km (9900 miles) Have changed the mufflers and noticed alot of water in them. There is no coolant smell in the exhaust.

Yes i have done this, marked on the dissy where the dots is. Btw there is impossible to install the flywheel in the wrong position. Its only goes in one way, have tryed that when installed the flywheel. -
Update. Headgaskets was installed and heads resurfaced ,engine runs but have this timing adjusting problem. Today i noticed water on the oilcap. Wth i think not again, second time i replaced the headgaskets and the problem is coming back again. Heads look good with no visible cracks. Is there somwhere else water can leak in to oil?
