Wheel Alignment
Wheel alignment brings your wheels back to the angles your manufacturer set them at from the factory. Potholes, kerbing a wheel, or just everyday driving over time can knock this out, and once it’s out, your tyres wear unevenly and the car becomes harder to control.
The most common sign is the car pulling to one side when you’re driving on a flat, straight road. You might also notice the steering wheel sitting off-centre when you’re driving straight ahead, or the steering feeling vague or slow to respond.
Left unchecked, misaligned wheels wear your tyres down faster on one edge, which means replacing them sooner than you should need to.
Autobar Bosch Car Service carries out wheel alignment using our Absolute Alignment Pro equipment, a digital CCD sensor system rather than a traditional laser or camera-based 3D setup. The sensors measure your wheel angles directly and feed back precise, real-time readings, so adjustments are made against your exact figures rather than an estimate.
For you, that means a faster job with less room for error, and a printout showing your before and after readings so you can see exactly what’s changed.
Getting your wheels aligned doesn’t need to mean a trip to the main dealer. Our workshop in Chester-le-Street gives you the same accuracy without dealer pricing or a long wait for an appointment, and the team can usually fit alignment in alongside a service or tyre change if you need more than one thing looked at.

The clearest sign is the car pulling to one side when driving straight ahead on a level road, and if you notice uneven tyre wear, a steering wheel that sits off-centre, or vague steering, those are also worth getting checked.
There’s really no fixed schedule, but it’s worth checking after hitting a pothole hard, clipping a kerb, or fitting new tyres, and as part of a routine check if you haven’t had it looked at for a while.
A standard alignment check and adjustment usually takes under an hour, depending on how far out the wheels are and whether any of the suspension components need attention first.
The cost depends on your vehicle and how many wheels need adjusting. Get in touch with us on 0191 388 0110 for a price, and we’re happy to combine it with a service or tyre fitting if that suits you better.
