I've just replaced all 4 tires, due to uneven tire wear (typical inside wear). Front Right tire worn fairly even, the rest were wearing inside.... The steering whheel was off centered and it was pulling to the right. Took my LR3 to the dealer, asked them to do the alignment and fix the pulling problem.
I got it back last night, but their worksheet makes me wonder if they fixed uneven tire wear problem. And... steering is still not center, still pulling to right.... damn!

On the invoice, alignment result states....
Front Left - Camber: Before -0.6 Actual -0.7 Spec Range -1.3 ~ 0.3
Front Left - Toe: Before -0.20 Actual 0.08 Spec Range -0.02 ~ 0.18
Front Right - Camber Before -0.7 Actual -0.8 Spec Range -1.3 ~ 0.3
Front Right - Toe: Before -0.25 Actual 0.08 Spec Range -0.02 ~ 0.18

Rear Left - Camber: Before -1.0 Actual -1.0 Spec Range -1.8 ~ -0.3
Rear Left - Toe: Before 0.09 Actual 0.12 Spec Range 0.05 ~ 0.18
Rear Right - Camber: Before -1.2 Actual -1.2 Spec Range -1.8 ~ -0.3
Rear Left - Toe: Before 0.18 Actual 0.17 Spec Range 0.05 ~ 0.18

I don't know for sure, but just going by the camber angles, I don't think they "fixed" it at all... Especially the rear!!! they are exactly the same as before!!

Should I take it back to the dealer and ask them to re-align it?
Thanks!

nathan has a whole wright up on the alignment

What tires are you running?
If it is the GY they will always wear uneven
it is a combo of the adjustable air suspension and the tire compound
