Technical Wheel Camber
Wow really nice car!
Sorry I can't help you on your problem, but may I ask what you have done to the lights to make them more white rather than stock? Looks the part!
Oh and I am sure someone will come along here and help you out.

Thanks, it is very nice.
The headlights in this picture are actually the stock ones that came with the car but i have now changed them to some show headlights that are technically illegal as they are as bright as HID kit lights on things such as Mercedes, discoveries etc. They are quite a lot brighter and bluer than these and look even better!

Get the tracking checked and adjusted at local garage/Kwik Fit kind of place.

Yeah i just had the wheel alignment done yesterday, that was when it was picked up on. He said it needed a new camber which is wrong coz camber is when the top and bottom of the wheel are not in line right? Its going into a Fiat garage to have it checked out tomorrow or friday. I also have a very small oil leak which sucks!
You had any problems with your Mjet?

GP Sporting, Exotica Red
Any help would be useful
I think this normally involves undoing the big bolts which connect the bottom of the spring damper unit to the top of the swivel hub assembly. The holes are normally oversize so that the wheel can be aligned to the correct camber angle before the bolts are retightened. I think the tracking would probably need to be checked / adjusted again afterwards.
Oh right, got any pics of em. Why would they be illegal if they are only as bright as Mercedes ones. What Kelvin are they?

I dont think that i have any pictures of them on the car but i will try and get some up on my profile once i have the car back tomorrow.
I have no idea why they are illegal, it seems really stupid to me. I think that they are 80 - 100 Watt, not sure what kelvin, would have to look at the box in my boot.

HID lights need to be self levelling and have a washer jet function to make them legal (i think).

It looked like it was from around the coolant pump but im not sure what was round there, its not particularly big as there only a few small drops on the garage floor where it is every night or its recent which is why i havnt noticed it before.

My oil leak was caused by the sump being over filled by fiat when i bought the car.
