2021 Audi A6 — car pulls right even though alignment is green

RoadDriverCommunity StarterDec 14, 20252021 Audi A6 PrestigeMiami
Alignment printout is within spec, but the car still wants to drift right on a flat road. Tire pressures match. Would you cross-rotate tires to check radial pull, or look harder at caster/camber side-to-side?

I'd keep this practical. Verify the cheap/easy branch on the 2021 Audi A6 before a big repair or a big spend. That's where I'd start. This is from a 2021 Audi A6 in Miami. Stop there until you know. Doing the boring step first on purpose.

Write down what you already tried. A second data point from another 2021 Audi A6 owner helps more than a generic diagnosis. That's where I'd start. That's the whole play. This is the version I'd tell a friend.

Don't overfit one forum story to your car. If it still isn't clear on the 2021 Audi A6, a specialist hour can be cheaper than another round of parts. Then you'll know the next fork. Had a similar mess a couple years ago and that's what finally sorted it. Make the next action something you can finish this week. I'm keeping receipts and dates in one folder.

Owner notes beat generic advice here. On the 2021 Audi A6 in Miami, I'd fix the thing you'll notice every day before chasing spec-sheet extras. Then you'll know the next fork. On “car pulls right even though alignment is,” that was the fork that mattered for me. This is from a 2021 Audi A6 in Miami. I'd want a dollar figure or a measured spec, not 'should be fine.' Wrote this up on my lunch break.

Following up on car pulls right even though alignment is: still happening, but I have better notes now. I'm in no rush to be a hero on it.

Agree — and I'd add this: A second data point from another 2021 Audi A6 owner helps more than a generic diagnosis. Then you'll know the next fork. Happy to compare notes if your setup is different. If this is nothing, great. I want that in data.
