stock camber... wow!!

Not sure if its normal to see this much camber on an suv though I do have lowering links but run on stock comfort right height which is similar to sports ride height. Currently seeing 4.5 degrees of camber on rear and front.

That’s quite a bit outside the factory specs. You should have it aligned.

Is it best to get an alignment with the truck in the lowest setting (S+) or leave it in comfort? I also drive in Comfort in the city, and when I switch modes to sport+ I quickly switch off the sport suspension stiffing and lowering setting. When I am on the highway, I put it in S+ since it's lowered and it makes the GLC feel more planted/stable. I may play with the individual settings and set it to Sport+ and leave suspension in comfort mode.

I will probably go for alignment this weekend. Does anyone have the alignment specs for a stock GLC43?

~ anyway to drop the car down before getting out? also is there anyway to lower the rear... aside from only the trunk switch? thanks!

Well for me, when I put the Dynamic setting to either sport or sport+ the truck lowers 15mm and if you turn off the truck while left in sport+ it stays at that setting until you turn the trunk on again which is then default set to comfort and it will raise/rise again. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Also, I am lowered with amazon suspension module just an fyi.

Since you have the amazon suspension module .
Can you program to have the truck lower 15mm when switching to dynamic but back to original setting when in comfort mode.... Or when using the suspension module the car goes lower 15mm in every mode ?
