W211 Camber/Castor Issue

[Dieselman]

Yep I agree- all pointing left. Lets hope we can get it sorted.

Car is a standard Avantgarde model by the way and not lowered or altered in anyway.

Thanks for all your help- much appreciated!

The printout looks like it is for a standard ride height model, not one with sports/lower suspension.

Yep that's right.

Mine has steel front and air rear springs but is a standard ride model unless all Avantgarde models are sport sprung. Compared to my last w210 with sport this has much softer suspension and higher profile tyres....

I have a E320 CDI (2003) - and driving in Denmark (where we drive in the "right" side of the road!)
It is pulling/drifting to the right!
I have a lot of confidence in the German engineers that designed this car and I'm sure that it is not drifting because of the road. Why should BMW or Audi engineers be any better at solving this "problem"?
My car is drifting no matter what road I drive. And it is genrally difficult to keep it on a straight line!
I have looked at some German forums and I guess the problem is very well known among MB owners.
The solution is a VERY precise adjusting of the wheels alingnment! "VERY precise" is not only within the limitations given in the MB Service Manual, but much less.
Last time it was done on my car the garage also managed to get the steering wheel "offset" so it is not centered anymore (it is not pointing straight ahead when the wheels are :-() So I'm going to get the guys to do a REAL GOOD job next time and guess that will fix the issue.
