If tie rods, ball joints, control arm bushings, wheel bearings, or struts are worn or bent, an alignment alone wont hold.

If hardware is the root cause, well show you the findings and provide options before any work proceeds. This ensures your 2016 BMW Alpina-B6-Gran-Coupe stays in spec and tracks straight after service.
- We check for looseness at each joint and bearing
- Bent wheels or subframe shifts are identified
- Written estimate provided before repairs
