• Mercedes CLS - Car not level side to side 2 Dec 2010 (Forum)
  Deviation)' The readings were: Left: 1.7mm / -0.90 degrees Right: 8.4mm / -0.20 degrees Target: 5.0mm +/- 10.0mm (-0.56 degrees +/- 1.05) Each individual measurement is within spec, but the report which is a 'mercedes benz chassis measurement' flags up the difference on this reading (along with the rear camber). I checked the car later that evening to see if I could tell any difference left to right and it appeared that the car was a bit lower on the left side (seemed about a 1 cm down compared to right).
