E320 CDI tracking issue

[gary4sybaris]

Hi all after finding that my last set of tyres havent llasted long and worn severely on the insides (Front)
I asked my tyre supplier to do the tracking however he said that due to my car having self levelling rear suspension he would only advise a dealer do it.
My question is ...is that the case?? are they so different or difficult to do?
The car is a 2001 e320 CDI estate avatgarde with mercedes 17" wheels 235/45/17 pirelli tyres. I have owned it for 3 years it has 170,000 miles and just had a full gearbox rebuild so need to keep it a while longer yet!!! lol.
Any advice on where to take the car near Leyland in Lancs would be appreciated.

I had the same problem on a w211 and the local tyre place who had one of those expensive tracking devices sorted it out fine. unfortumately I'm miles away but i'm sure you'll find one up there
