Why Is Mercedes-Benz 260E Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Mercedes-Benz 260E’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. When your car has an alignment service, calculated changes are made to the angles of your tires. This is so that your tires hit the road at an optimal angle for your vehicle’s performance — just as Mercedes-Benz intended. When the system is aligned to Mercedes-Benz specifications, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. Three good things happen as a result: your ride is smoother, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1987 Mercedes-Benz 260E, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Mercedes-Benz recommendations. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Mercedes-Benz 260E

It’s wise to have your Mercedes-Benz 260E alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 1987 Mercedes-Benz 260E: pulling to the left or right, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your 260E if your wheel alignment needs attention.

Mercedes-Benz 260E Alignment Questions

  • Where's the alignment light on my 1987 Mercedes-Benz 260E? Don't wait for an 'alignment light' on your dashboard. There isn't one. Getting a professional alignment check is the easiest way to know if your 260E alignment is off.
  • How can I avoid knocking my Mercedes-Benz 260E out of alignment? Potholes and uneven roads can knock your car out of alignment, so stay aware of the road ahead and adjust your speed (or avoid these obstacles whenever it’s safely possible).
  • I just bought new Mercedes-Benz 260E tires. Do I need an alignment? Keep new tires in excellent condition with a wheel alignment. Help them wear evenly from the start with a wheel alignment at the time of installation.
  • How often should you get a wheel alignment for your 260E? Generally, it’s wise to have your alignment looked at around every 6,000 miles or 6 months, whichever happens first. You should check your 260E owner’s manual to verify Mercedes-Benz’s suggested interval.
  • Do you need to get your 260E wheels aligned when you get new tires? You likely aren't required to get an alignment when you put new tires on your 260E, but it's a super smart idea! An alignment can help ensure optimal tire wear, fuel efficiency, and handling. Still, you should reference your 260E owner’s manual for what’s recommended.

  • My 260E steering wheel is crooked. Will an alignment fix it? A wheel alignment is usually what it takes to fix a crooked 260E steering wheel. When the wheels are not properly aligned, they can cause the car to pull to one side, which can also cause the steering wheel to become crooked while you're driving straight down the road.
