Right guys so I've been driving for the past month with my alignment badly out, steering was very off centre. Been extremely busy with work so had no time to get it done.
Went to get the alignment fixed today and the garage could only fix the front wheels. The rear cam bolts are seized solid (does anyone know how to successfully remove these bolts?) Anyway they couldn't do the rear wheels because of this.
They told me that my back wheels were both just out of the allowed tolerances, and as a result of this the car could be crabbing slightly and my steering wheel would still be slightly off.
So when I left the tyre centre I noticed the steering wheel was off centre still, however in the opposite direction. This was ok because he told me it would be like that.
However as soon as I got back onto the main road and took the car over 40, I got a fault on info screen on my dials saying 'ESP Fault, See owners manual'.
The ESP light stays on until I switch the car off, then comes back on once I start driving the car. Now I know this means my ESP is OFF and not working.
Does anyone know the cause of the ESP fault and how I can release the seized cam bolts on the rear?
Thanks
