    2011 C180 pulling to the left

    Hi All, The car is pulling to the left quite noticeably. A few months back the original alloys were swapped for genuine 18" ones with branded tyres. I can't remember if the car pulled left on the original alloys as they were swapped out soon after we bought it. I have read the related...

    Going to wheels in motion on Tuesday. (Car pulling to the left)

    This is my 3rd week of MB ownership, and since day one I've felt flat due to it constantly pulling to the left, I've had it tracked, balanced/tyre pressures, but still no joy. It's actually hurting my wrist holding the damn thing straight. So did some googling, and it threw up WIM, the bloke on...

    Old topic.... pulling to the left / right. W204 C63

    I remember my last C63 slightly pulled to the left and MB explained it as a side effect of the car being designed for the LHD market thus feeling the effect of camber on the correct side of the road. Did anyone ever get to solving this? My new C63 is also pulling fractionally to the Left! I...

    Hi All, Car is a 2008 W204 C220 CDI Saloon, 5 speed auto. I got new tyres last week and the dealer replaced the 'diff balancer' under warranty (just looks like a mount behind the rear subframe (which the diff bushes are mounted to)) - stiff component but the bushes were worn so they replaced...

    c350 cdi steering pulling left - problem solved

    :D Have lived with my c350 cdi for a few months now and am really loving the car. The engine is great and the added pleasure it brings both aurally and in terms of power soon makes me forget about any loss in mpg over a 2l. The ride ( adjustable dampers and 18's) is the perfect combination...

    dodgy tyre caused pulling to left

    Can anyone explain why or how a tyre could become so different to its opposite side (identical make and age) that it caused my car to pull very strongly left? I was about to have a great deal on money spent on bushes and caster/camber alignment stuff :mad: when one last simple experiment...

    C class 2004 pulling left, tracking didnt help

    My car pulls left quiet stubbornly. I'm not sure if it was from hitting a particularly steep speed bump with the left hand side, or if I just haven't noticed until now as the car is fairly new to me. I had the tracking adusted by national tyres (left toeing out, right toeing in...guess that...

    Is the dealer pulling a fast one?

    Hi all, a couple of weeks into ownership of my 2003 E270cdi, I experienced occasional and very mild juddering (for about a second) at low revs, I struggled to replicate the issue every time. Other than the very mild occasional judder, I have not experienced any odd vibrations, clonks or jerks...

    Hi guys, I had my lower control arms and a couple of bushes changed last weekend. The car is now pulling to the left quite considerably (as in, if I let go of the steering wheel, I would be up on the kerb within 10 seconds) When the guys fitted the control arms and bushes they told me the...
