Question regarding Renntech ELM

I just had an ELM installed and I can't say anything bad about it. It's so much better than being lowered via links. I did have 1 question to all that have the Renntech ELM. I was under the impression that the ELM would even out the rear suspension. When I was lowered via links the right side was always higher than the left. I'm noticing now that even with the ELM the right is still higher than the left . Is this true with everyone else?

When I first got my car, I noticed my driver’s side was .75” lower than the passenger side. I had my car lowered via Star Diagnosis and was told it would balance my car out…but nope, it didn’t. It finally balanced out after I had my ELM installed.

i have the same problem too before, You need to bring it to mercedes benz and have them aligment your car. But you need to have the car in Stock condition.

So do I just turn the ELM off then have them align the car? Or should I move it to 7?
