Pulls the car to the right
Hello!
I have a huge problem with my Mercedes.
My car pulls to the right. The faster I go, the worse it is. At higher speeds it behaves even more nervously.
I had a problem with the camber angle of the wheel. I solved the problem by buying a control arm bolt with an adjustment function. The wheel is now set correctly. All other parameters of car geometry are also correct.
I bought new wheels and tires...the car still pulls.
There is no play (loose) in the suspension.
The braking system is also fine.
What else could it be? Does anyone have any ideas?

Has it had any kind of collision, or hit a pothole, or run over something?

I would have a very close look at these parts and most likely replace both caster arms and both camber arms with only genuine parts.
Caster is controlling the car going in a straight line with very little steering input.
My w204 C200 started pulling to the left in a straight line (we drive on the left) the rubber caster front bush fluid leaked from the arm and that was the cause changing the pivot point of the arm and there for causing the car to pull to the l/h side.
I made the decision to replace all the caster and camber alloy genuine arms and the problem is fixed and I also noticed less steering input at higher speed to maintain stability and straight lines.
My C63 2012 is low km's and not had any issues.
