off centered steering wheel
Hi
my c240s steering wheel is slightly off centered, its like 12:03, 3 minutes past twelve. wheel alignment is perfect though, the car goes straight, tire pressure is also correct. I just wanna know on how to center the wheel without having to remove it, and moving it one or more teeth over the steering column spline. Ive heard that toyotas n honda's wheels can be finely adjusted thru their steering racks....
btw, could centering the wheel affect ESP in any way, causing faults to appear in the process???? thanks!

I had the same problem. You don't adjust it at the steering wheel, but at the rack. Common complaint. After the service they included a computer printout of where all the wheels were adjusted within the tolerance limits. I thought the alignment was fine before I took the car in but after the alignment it tracked noticeably better.
