after reading a few posts on here about camber and its effects, i was asking a local mechanic about it....he told me theres nothing to adjust the camber on my 02, 2.2 dti, and doing a wheel alignment would do the same thing.....any truth in it?

there is, the two bolts bottom of the struts are also adjustable for camber as one of the wholes the bolts go through is ovalised, full geometric set up for you, and dont let anybody tell you differant.
But make sure your wishbone bushes stearing idler and springs are all in goog nick as any subsequent replacement of those parts may well need another set up.... hth

On the Mk1 Carlton the strut top bearing was in a circular plate with three fixing studs. The bearing was slightly off centre so depending which way round it was attached to the suspension turret you had 3 camber settings to choose from. Tough luck if you couldn't find one you liked.
