hey guys, hope you're all enjoying the GL, well i got new tires so i got it aligned, 2 weeks later i took it in to get some more camber straightened, and they said both pass side wheels are not where they were aligned to (camber is again where it will eat tires inner shoulder) they did alignment and now a week later I can see the passenger side are both out again .. wth is going on??

My first thought is that maybe they aren't using the Wheel spreading tool, is the MB dealership doing this alignment? Do they have the Merc Toe tool? Maybe you have an air leak that keeps changing your ride height.. And lastly maybe the previous tech did what he could but you are still out of spec..

Also Kmac has a kit to help with alignments.

Something is off for sure :-)

bring truck to mercedes for alignment. best $150 spent.

there are several benz airmatic- specific steps that a normal alignment shop would not execute nor know about

I too continue to run into this issue. I have a 2010 GL550. Brand new rear air bladders.

I never had my alignment done at Mercedes Benz though. Maybe I should now that others have.

Carlosrg is spot on. There's a bar that is needed that they'll wedge in between the tires to hold them tight during the alignment. It will never be get dialed in without it.

I had my alignment done twice and both were not at the MB dealer. No issues so far. About to take to for alignment check up, just in case.
