Default 01 Audi s4 my car pulls right?

So my problem started about 4 or 5 months ago, my car started pulling to the right, I thought it was just my alignment, so I took it in to NTB and had the alignment done. Then told me I had a CV boot or joint out (don’t remember which), so I took it to the dealership and they fixed the issue under the extended warranty. My tire was a little worn; I was told that the car would keep pulling until I got my tire replaced. So I replaced both of my front tires. My tire continued to ware and my car still pulled to the right. I then took my car to back to the Audi dealership, they found nothing wrong with my car. But they told me that the only thing they couldn’t verify was the alignment, but that I should wait until my front tires wore out aging and get 4 new tires. So I got new rims and 4 new tires balanced. Then I went back to NTB because it was still pulling to the right. They told me it was aligned correctly, and they had no idea why it was pulling that way. They did mention that my cast was off by less than 1 degree. They also told me that the cast should not cause the car to pull. But I’m not sure where someone can look at that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

take it to audi with the new rubber... don't wait long every mile is scrub if your alignment is off. I always have my cars aligned at the dealer because they deal with your car only, day in and day out, and they know what to look for. (in the metro washington dc area) NTB is generally disgruntled highschool dropout changing tires and couldn't give to ***** about your car.

The caster out on one side will definately cause the car to pull, the only catch is the caster is not adjustable on an audi with a four link suspension. In otherwords, if the caster is out on just one side somethingon your suspension is bent on that side.

Check all the control arms & TRE chances are they are worn out.
