What Can I Expect with Mercedes-Benz 300SE Alignment?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Mercedes-Benz 300SE's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. During the service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Mercedes-Benz. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Mercedes-Benz specifies for your vehicle, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. This gives you several benefits: your ride is smoother, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1988 Mercedes-Benz 300SE, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Mercedes-Benz’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When to Get Mercedes-Benz 300SE Wheel Alignment

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Mercedes-Benz 300SE alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 1988 Mercedes-Benz 300SE: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, excessive wear on only one tire, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your 300SE if your wheel alignment needs attention.
