Dear All,
The front right caster index is 5 grades 13 min at the bottom limit of 5 grades 30 min. Could it the the reason of deflection of the car and also the increased thrust when turning the steering wheel to the left on the move?

I have measured the thrust on the steering wheel when turning to the left and to the right and they were 3,7 Nm and 4,0 Nm which are OK. But on the move I feel like it is harder to tern the wheel to the left than to the right.

I was told that it is not possible to adjust the caster on S90. The way to correct the caster index is to adjust the position end abutment of the front shock-absorder. To do that it is necessary to drill the new holes for the splint pins.

Did anybody faced with this?

Thanks
Oleg
