Looking for a good garage around the exeter area to perform a 4 wheel alignment after going over one too many pot holes. Now pulls slightly to the left.

Search Google Maps for 'Hunter' equipped garages. Be aware that the adjusters can become seriously corroded and seized therefore the garage may not be able to do any adjustment. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322)

Look up a Hunter place on www.alignmycar.co.uk
Or I can recommend a place in Hampshire 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"
New Defender D300 90 on order so "Rory" will be going to a new home....!
1974 Series 3 Lightweight = "Millie"

If you come up near Bristol at all I used an excellent bunch (Latvian Or Lithuanian)

https://bristolwheelalignment.co.uk

or nearer to you at Shepton Mallet, speak to Steve Norman (https://www.tandsnorman.com) about who they use. They do all the work on my RR and are second to none.

There are not very many Hunter machine locally but some do use SUN PRISM Machine made by Snap On with the latest John Bean software.
Is this as good?

I had mine done at bp tyres near newton abbot about a month ago on a hunter setup. https://bptyres.co.uk/ -----------------------------------

Just went to Marsh Tyres Exeter to get the alignment done, was told oh no you need four new tyres to do the test.
I thought you were measuring the wheel geometry not the tyres', but I am I wrong?
Got home checked the tyre tread all above the limit.????
WTF

Devon 4x4 did an excellent job on mine. Range Rover 4.2 SC
2 Range Rover Classics - one from new but both rusty now.
Rover 3.5 Coupe had since new.
Subaru Legacy 3.0.
BMW K1200RS.

You don't need 4 new tyres. Just try Halfords or Kwickfit if you need it checked. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322)

Worth going to someone good like devon 4x4 or bptyres. Went to get mine checked at national after replacing the front shocks. 3 attempts and it drove itself in circles. Back on a hunter rig and it was miles out. -----------------------------------

Kwickfit used Hunter last time I had mine done (just front toe after track rod replacement). Often though it's not the kit the garage has but the ability and knowledge of the person operating it. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322)

Very true. Hence i’ve found both the above to be very good. Should’ve read the warning sign that the office was full of monster cans at national 😂 -----------------------------------

Had the tracking done at bptyres. Very good service, but car is still pulling to the left.
The new print out of the tracking shows it should be OK.
What does that mean, any ideas?

Not a massive expert, but could be 1 of the following perhaps that I've had in the past with this and other cars / vans:

0. They did not completely center the steering wheel when they did it ( always worth taking it back and asking them to check again) - is there an angle where it does drive straight? mine was about 15º off

1. different weights on the wheels( one ladened, one with none)
2. slightly different tyre pressures
3. One back brake calliper / handbrake binding slightly Check if one wheel is hotter than the other)
4. I did read somewhere here about worn rose bus joints on the rear, but I don't have any experience of that one.

Interestingly I had similar, was paranoid about it, but then went to France and it rolled to the right instead of the left because of the curvature of the road.

Thanks for the thoughts5.
Funny I am off on a trip though Spain will be interesting to see if it changes.
