-matt- Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 All good so far then...Maybe show us the final positions for validation. I'll try and get a picture when they do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 They should also give you a printout so even a picture of that will do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-matt- Posted October 21, 2017 Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 Well, they've really starred today. Â After buying the 2 adjustment bolts and them telling me they'd perform any adjustments I wanted, they're now saying they're "not comfortable" staggering the castor as they'd be liable for any wear of other problems resulting from the adjustments, and that they're not happy only having 2 bolts fitted. Â They obviously just haven't got a clue what they're doing. They've wasted so much of my time. Not happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted October 21, 2017 Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 Rubbish..... The datum MB offer are a suggestion not law. In addition the castor will not wear the tyres unless it's ridiculously wrong. Also them saying unhappy about staggering the castor they don't know if the adjustments stay within the MB tolerance because they haven't fitted them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-matt- Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 Success!  Took it to a local place that clearly know what they’re doing and it’s all sorted now. They said they usually fit both bolts on the camber, but did as I asked them from what Tony suggested and it all fell into place nicely.  The car is driving like a dream now. Straight as an arrow.  The hand written figures are the after on castor. He forgot to do another castor sweep.  Thanks again for the advice, Tony.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 Print looks perfect, a nice degree castor disparity over the axle in favour to the right is nice and high... Top marks to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted March 3, 2020 Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 Hello Matt Is it possible you still have a picture of the alignment report, as i have a problem with an MB W212, that drift to the right (left hand drive). Regarts Daniel Denmark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossB Posted May 23, 2020 Report Share Posted May 23, 2020 Good Evening,  Im after some help, my Mercedes e class coupe pulling to the left (having to keep right hand slightly on steering to keep it in a straight line). I’ve had 4 wheel alignment done using hunter system and it still pulls to the left (actually feels worse). Any help or advice would be appreciated. I have attached URL of Hunter readout https://www.dropbox.com/s/db2u1cm6wzz88el/Photo 23-05-2020%2C 18 58 54.jpg?dl=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted May 24, 2020 Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 Hello Ross Before i get technical about the geometry. Did anything get done between the time is wasn't pulling and now. I can see issues with the geometry report but i need to be sure there was no other trigger for the pull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossB Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 Hi Tony I have Recently changed the front springs, drop links and OSF Track control arm, but to be honest, it’s always pulled to the left since I’ve owned it (3 years)  The reason why I had the 4 wheel alignment done was due to the recent new parts.

RossB Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 All parts used were genuine MB parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted May 26, 2020 Report Share Posted May 26, 2020 Okay it does read like a geometry issue..... We need to acquire an image of the chassis and advise/ quote from there. The good news is unlike the dealers we only charge for what we correct rather than give a absolute cover all price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossB Posted May 26, 2020 Report Share Posted May 26, 2020 That’s sounds great, any help and quote would be very much appreciated.  many thanks Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 All adjustment MB bolts we hold in stock, so we are compliant with the insurance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
