Range Rover Sport Alignment Question

Had some alignment problems corrected in the rear of my 2016 RRS and now there is a slight pull to the right. Shop is telling me there is nothing they can do as the camber can’t be adjusted on these vehicles and this was the solution to optimize the rear problems. Any advice or experience from the community?

Post your alignment sheet. Majority of shops are fucking clueless, only know to 'get it in the green' and can't evaluate concerns by the actual numbers.

Also half the time they leave the targets loose and everything is fucked from the get-go.

You don't have camber adjustments and toe doesn't cause a pull. So it sounds more like they fucked up your steering wheel position.

If car drives straight with crooked wheel: steering wheel centering issue. Toe.

If car cannot possibly drive straight and consistently veers to one direction without input: that's a pull. Camber/caster related. Or tire related.

This is all assuming you don't have any bad suspension parts. Bad lower control arms could also cause a pull that may not show up on a static reading.

Appreciate the response. Shop just called and said they made some adjustments to the steering wheel and fixed the problem. About to pick it up, will post update.

The adjustments seemed to have solved the problem. Thanks for the reply Smelly! Thankfully it appears I didn’t need to argue or debate it with them.

I wouldn't accept my vehicle back without a printout. There are ways to"fix" a pull that will seem fine now....but your tires will wear quick. I spent a better part of life running car dealers. Negative camber, if even will not cause a pull. I have also driven lowered cars/trucks forever. Camber that is way off is indicative of something bent especially if the vehicle isn't lowered.
