hey dave can you help me?
I went to the local dealer and had an alignment done, and got the car back yesterday. They installed the camber/caster bolts and made adjustments, but the car still has lots of camber on the left side front only. The car still pulls to the right pretty badly. The guy said there is nothing wrong with the frame.
Can you tell me where this mysterious bolt is and how to adjust it? I know you're not the alignment tech, but any advice would help at this point. I'm not sure what to do anymore.
Danke schon.

The eccentric bolt is on the lower control arm where it attaches to the front subframe. The only way I can "tell" you how to adjust is via the use of an alignment rack. You turn the bolt until the numbers are green on the screen, then tighten it down. It's not what I'd call a do-it-yourself adjustment. I don't deal with lowered/customized suspension cars anyways, I've seen the alignment tech pull his hair out over cars like yours. No thanks! Stock works for me.
