Re: Tyre wear bulletin. Found it... http://www.fiatforum.com/stilo/11806...ar-update.html. Have to scroll a bit down. Thanks Phil - again. I have some inner wear on both front tires, and the car is going in for the Norwegian version of your MOT. Propably the same. Has to be carried out every second year, after the car is 3 years old.

Re: Tyre wear bulletin. Ours is every year after 3 years old, but I'm guessing its the same thing, where honest motorists like us go to a reputable garage and take the results as they come, while the people who KNOW their cars dangerous go to the dodgiest garage going where they know that they'll pass it in return for a go on their wife/daughter/dog
sorry for the guttermouth ;D

There are targets to eliminate, such as tanks, or mortar
crews. These are just a matter of getting the job done. There is no real
winning strategy for these ones, just don't die.

Usually when you have got wear on the inner side of both tyres it indicates that they are toeing out. Correcting this should improve handling. Un less the Stilo has got a specific problem.
BTW, how are they on induction at the MÖT in Norway?
Re: Tyre wear bulletin. It is a specific problem on the stilo..and thats down to bad design on the car all they do when they have got the car in the workshop is slacken off two of the mounting bolts that hold on the lower arm repostion it and retighten the bolts ..quite often this doesnt work and your back to square one..the best way is to fit camber bolts making the geometry totally adjustable ..this solves the problem and lets you get on with solving other problems on the stilo ;D

If thats on the fronts then your tracking is way out also could be trackrod ends duff or steering rack on the blink ..but knowing you its more a case of going round corners to fast.. :cow

Re: Tyre wear bulletin. could be the corners. got the tracking done and its spot on. do think there is something wrong with the setup though.

Will find out tomorrow if there is any slack in the suspension. I've booked the car at an independent car organisation. They don't fix anything, and hence, they have nothing to earn on "faking" faults. They set pressure at any moving part of the car in search for play.

Didn't have any problems with the Uno, and Fiat themselves gave me a go-ahead regarding insurance etc. It shouldn't be a problem though, as noise level is measured from the back box as far as I know. Will post back in a couple of hours, when the test is done.
