[CL9] Tramlining

[viper8548]

Ever since I bought my car I've been experiencing something which I just found out the meaning of, tramlining. On any slight unflat roads my steering seems to have a mind of its own, and sometimes it can get quite dangeous as the feedback can be quite strong. I've never had this feeling before on my parent's cars (2000 Camry and Echo). Is this something common on the euro lux with 17" stockies?

yeh both my euros do it. 05 and 06 lux

[Crapdaz]

the euros on stock suspension is less likely to do it, didnt have much problem on my 03 when on stock.

comparing to me running teins it is pretty intense.

Euros are noted for it.Make sure you get a decent wheel alignment and you'll minimise it.

Fixed mine:

Tein SS suspension
Whiteline RSB
Custom alignment as per aarrong suggestions.

i dont know which one fixed it but mines not just fixed but ultra stable at speed. Its fking great compared to stock ( which used to annoy me a lot)

whats the setting you got yours fixed up as suntzu?

[Suntzu]

its 1mm toe out , zero camber front
Zero toe rear, about 1 degree of neg camber rear.

I thinks that it. Aarrong told me this and its very good.

do you have a front camber kit? or just stock arms?

I tried alot of different settings worst tramlining i've experienced in a car..........


have to admit when i got new tyres tramlining was almost gone but back again

[Suntzu]

No front camber kit. But I do have an ingalls rear camber kit. No issues with front alignment lowered. Its the geometry of the front that allows it so i hear.
