I had the same problem with my car pulling slightly to the right, when my car was new. I took it back to my dealer and they test drove it and agreed that it wasnt right. They made a sligh alteration (not sure what) and half an hour later when I got the car back, it was perfect and has been for the last 2 years.

i must have spent about £500 trying to get mine sorted, in the end i gave up as it was getting stupid.

the guys at swansea BMW just put it back the other way a quarter turn for me, looks straight to my eye, and tyre wear has been fine.

happy chap
