| Hello all,
For the last 6 months, I was observing the rear tyres are not exactly straight, but slightly mis-aligned. Although there is no problem in driving the car, no drag or slide, but the tyres are wearing out on the inside real fast.
I got it checked with the Pratham service centre at Jakkur, they told me it is an issue with the rear axle and the same needs to be changed. I need 3 help here. 1) Need your expert comments if this observation is correct. 2) If yes what could be the cost to do the replacement. 3) Is this a regular issue with Logan? What is the risk of continuing with this rear axle, when there is no problem with the drive an only issue with the tyres wearing out? | |

| You did say a few months back you went on a long drive with also rough roads ! this could have altered your alignments by banging into potholes and stuff | |

| Hello Martin, I spent considerable time across multiple Garages in Bangalore, the result is the same. Looks like there is a minor bent that has come in in the rear axle and this what is eating in the inner side of the rear tyres. They have quoted almost 26K + labour for this. However they also said, this does not posses and drive risk or impact to ride quality and it is a call that i need to take, whether i am comfortable replacing the tyres every 20K KM or go for the one time corrective action.
I am actually thinking if i really need to invest so much, i would rather pimp up the car with some better suspensions all together. | |

| BUT !!!! have you been to a Renault or a Mahindra Garage ! For you to bend the axel you need to have been in a accident or driven through one massive hole which hit the axel | |
