    Can anyone recommend someone to carry out the wheel alignment on my w210? Im based in Dublin. I have had it done by fast fit but it is still the same.

    It is pulling to the left.

    Thanks in advance

    All MB's "pull" to the left, it's a design feature to stop you trying to drive with no hands on the wheel

    Wrong, until recently, the car was perfect. Straight as a die.


    Thanks for all the replies, will book it in with Dave McCann,

    Before getting carried away. If it was driving straight until recently what changed to make it pull left?

    Prob hit a pot hole or kerb or something that knocked it out of line

    @General Motors - Are you sure? The W211 are def ment to pull to the left slightly. Are you sure the W210 isn't the same?

    you're kidding, right??

    It's the camber on the road which causes the pull - the car is supposed to go straight...........

    If it pulled to the left, wouldn't half the continental drivers be dead by now ?? :p:p

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”
