Post alignment problem

Hi Guys,

I was getting my wheel alignment and in the shop told me that the could not adjust the "toe" of the rear wheels because the car was missing some type of "eccentric bolt" that adjusts "toe".
Does any know what I am talking about?
Do they have a Porsche part number?
Many thanks,
Iván

I don't think it's possible to be missing the bolt, and still drive the car... someone correct me if i'm wrong...

maybe the shop just doens't know how to do a "Porsche" alignment properly - that is also very common.

The toe is adjusted via a special tool that goes into that hole, so the shop was just not familiar with the 944 alignment procedure.
