Went back just now after changing the near side wheels round (I think the front was on the back and vice versa, due to tread depth and scrubbage) and got them to check the tracking again to make sure it was alright, because it still pulls, but now if you hold the steering wheel straight then it goes off to the left. It's not down to it pulling, it's the same as holding it on a bit of left hand turn, except the wheel's straight  So I have to hold it funny to go in a straight line now

I went back today because I knew they wouldn't charge me for it, because the original adjustment didn't work. If I went somewhere else then I would get charged, and I really can't afford to keep pouring money into this problem when I don't have an income any more.
He said that it was almost perfectly square today, but they adjusted it anyway, but by the looks of it one of their team of chavs messed something up.

Sounds like they have just adjusted one side now then if the wheel isn't centred. Go somewhere decent, get them to sort the tracking and get the steering straight.

Will do mate, I've heard that another place a little bit further away but still local is good and quite cheap. Should have gone there first tbh  Abbey Tyres charged me £39 for the tracking  It only took them five minutes

I pumped them all to 30 after I put them on, they were at 28 before.

Tbh I need petrol and it's only about an hour and a half to Lancashire
