Today, I took the 240 over to Auto Assets for alignment and corner weighting. I had previous experience with the shop, as the Audi Avant is a regular visitor - so I knew they were legit. Although, they were a little hesitant to work on a Japanese car.
First up, corner weighting. This process was done with me in the driver's seat, for optimum setup. I was quite pleased with the results:
LF: 673lb (26.5%)
RF: 657lb (25.8%)
LR: 610lb (24.0%)
RR: 602lb (23.7%)
F: 1330lb (52.3%)
R: 1212lb (47.7%)
Total: 2544lb (wet, with 170lb driver)
Second, alignment. Dennis helped out with setting the specifications, pretty much as much negative camber as possible....just kidding.
Driving back to Dublin, the overall feel was MUCH improved. The vehicle was stable and confident as higher speeds. Unfortunately, we identified a front brake clearance issue (rotor to caliper) and a leaky master cylinder - both of which need to be fixed before drivable again.
