LCR, different geometry settings?

Does the LCR have different geometry settings than a regular leon/cupra? If so would someone doing the alignment have these and not resort to settings that may not be correct for the R?

Second question of the day, if the front subframe was dropped out (to fit new arbs) but the balljoint camber adjustment not touched, is it necessary to get the camber checked along with the regular 4 wheel tracking? Camber was checked only recently. Don't really want to waste money if I don't have to.

Had the car in a major tyre place today and they said they can't check camber and it wouldn't go on the ramp anyway because of the splitter!! :doh:

If it does, they're not documented anywhere. Whenever I had mine done they used the MKIV Golf settings :shrug:

You might get away with not redoing camber, but it's a bit penny wise pound foolish IMHO; you've just spents loads on suspension upgrades and you're not going to make sure it's set up spot on? For another £50 (ish)?

Get it done, yer tight arse :D

Got it booked in, took me a while to find somewhere that can do camber, half a dozen or so places I rang said they couldn't.

I was sure ATS did but apparently not.
