Tracking ?

Hi All

Anyone of you know what the correct setting is for the tracking on an 03 1.9 JTD multiwagon running on standard 16" rims is ?
Front tyres wearing on the inner edge on the drivers side and outer on the other, dealer says its right but i dont believe em... had the tracking reset by them at 9k and new tyres, now on 19k. wanted to be able to take it to a non franchised garage and have the tracking set.
I read some where tha the current thinking by Fiat was to set the front wheels parallel ? does that sound right ?

Anyway Ta very much for any info...

Jo

1.9JTD MW with nearly all the toys..

Re: Tracking ?

The dealer is wrong it is a design fault and has been discussed at exhaustive lenght on here see http://www.fiatforum.com/showthread....ight=tyre+wear

I've had a new axle at the cost of £650 (under warranty) to try and cure this. Still to see if it works yet!
