1989 BMW 325is, RWD
The camber on the front driver side is -1.3. On the passenger side, it's -2.1. Car was involved in some sort of collision on the passenger side before I owned it, but no obvious damage to suspension components can be seen.
Anyway, I had the car taken in for an alignment a short while ago. The toe was adjusted so that it's a little positive now, but the camber was left alone [in these cars, only front toe can be aligned, nothing else]. Before the alignment, the steering wheel had to be pointed about 5-10 degrees to the left for the car to go straight [ie, car drifted a little to the right if steering wheel straight]. After the alignment, it's now the reverse but much less [
My question is if the difference in camber [very high on right side] could cause the car to do this.
