Steering/Suspension After tyre change
I had a blow out on the rear drivers side and today I took the wheel to a garage to get the tyre changed.
the car has been sat for a few days whilst I sorted this.
Replaced the wheel with the new tyre, and as I drove off turned right near full lock of the drive and a horrible noise almost as if the front passenger side wheel was rubbing on the wheel liner. Also the steering is incredibly light and feels as if there is almost no contact with the road, steering is very vague almost like driving on ice, just massive amount of understeer at low speeds.
any ideas? It’s an F11 520d

Changing a rear tire would not affect the front suspension components. Maybe the shop messed something up if it was driving fine before the tire was changed.
