If the calibration is required due to an accident repair or a windscreen replacement, it is almost always covered by your insurance. However, if it's part of general maintenance (like getting your tracking done after hitting a pothole), it usually comes out of your own pocket. We recommend checking with your insurer, such as Think Insurance or Nash Warren, if you are unsure.

What makes straight line calibration the best choice for customers compared to other services?

Straight Line Calibration stands out because we offer a professional, fully mobile ADAS calibration and 4-wheel alignment combined service. This means convenience for you, as we come to your location – whether that's a garage, body shop, dealership, or your customer premises – eliminating the need to transport your vehicle. Our integrated approach ensures both services are done efficiently and to the highest standard.

What's the one thing you always tell customers they should know before getting their ADAS calibrated or wheels aligned?

If there is one thing we always emphasize, it’s this: calibration and alignment are two halves of the same whole. Many drivers think of them as separate maintenance tasks, but in modern vehicles, they are technically inseparable. Proper wheel alignment is the foundation, and ADAS calibration ensures your vehicle's safety systems correctly interpret its position and movement based on that foundation.

Are there any common myths or misunderstandings about ADAS calibration or wheel alignment that you often explain to people?

When explaining ADAS and wheel alignment, I find that most misunderstandings stem from the fact that modern cars are now essentially computers on wheels. People often don't realise how interconnected the mechanical components (like alignment) are with the electronic safety systems (ADAS). Misconceptions usually arise from viewing these as traditional, separate mechanical services, rather than a crucial, integrated electronic calibration process.
