Sorry for your frustration Spyda...

Just a shot in the dark but have you/they checked for uneven tire wear? Or swapping around the front wheels?

Yep - swapped front to back on both sides (at different times) and have had a pair of completely different wheels from a T4 on the front for testing ... no difference.

Can't swap one side to another though as they are directional.

Tyre wear is uneven but thats to be expected with constantly fighting with the steering. I need to get new tyres but obviously want to get to the bottom of the cause of the tyre wear first.
