Hello,

Unfortunately, after replacing the steering gear, it has become clear that the front bushings of the control arms, at least one of them, were also so severely torn and worn that the car pulled strongly to the left during acceleration. (A wheel alignment was performed immediately after the repair.)

So, just to be on the safe side, I also installed new A2 control arm bushings along with the new control arms, and the problem was solved. For extra safety, I also had a wheel alignment done, as the steering wheel was also turned about a hand's width to the right.

However, after the measurement, the track deviation angle still deviates from the minimum and maximum values specified in the protocol.
I performed these measurements along with other wheel alignments, but I've never seen deviations like this before.
Are the deviations so high that they need to be corrected again?

Please provide the entire protocol here, not just parts of it. You can redact your personal information and the workshop's data.
