Steve, my wife loves her VW Eos with it's retractable hardtop. Unfortunately that technology is way above my pay grade.
In the way of progress, I took my first trip to DMV with paperwork in hand. With an appointment, I was in and out in 30 minutes.
Walk-ins were waiting up to 3 hours!!
After paying $146 in fees, I left with my BAR certificate of sequence number and two one day operation permits.
Two days ago I drove to he closest inspection station for the brake and lamp inspections. Passed the lamp inspection fine, but I was told the brakes were pulling to the right too much, and would need some work. The good news is they didn't charge me for the brake inspection since all the tech did was a test drive.
After talking with the tech., it seemed the most likely cause of the pulling brakes was the 40 year old hoses, since the calipers, rotors and pads are all new. After replacing the hoses yesterday, it still pulls to the right, albeit somewhat less.
I know I need a front wheel alignment, but what else could be causing my problem??Wes
You don't have to be crazy to do this...
... but it helps!
