Front camber on stock CLS500
Hello,
I just had my CLS500 alignment adjusted because of a slight pull to the right. The service tech told me they can adjust it but I will need a front camber bolt to totally correct the problem. The front camber before adjustment was -1.7 and they got it -1.5 but it is still in the red. I think the specs calls for -1.2 to -1.5. Since the car is stock, why wouldn't the stock bolt be able to adjust to spec? Am I being scammed for service I don't really need? If it needs to be fixed, about how much am I looking to spend? Any help or suggestions would be great.
Thanks!
