What Can I Expect with Mercedes-Benz 560SL Alignment?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Mercedes-Benz 560SL's suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. When your car has an alignment service, the individual angles of your tires are adjusted so that they come into contact with the road in just the right way — the way Mercedes-Benz intended them to. 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 your suspension system experiences less strain. Bring your 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Mercedes-Benz’s recommended measurements. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I Get Mercedes-Benz 560SL Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your Mercedes-Benz 560SL 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 need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your 560SL dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
