I’ve noticed since I picked my GLC 43 up a week ago that the steering wheel, when traveling straight ahead seems to be slightly off to the right.
If I let go of the wheel it seems to centre in a pretty much straight ahead position however I seem to have to apply a very slight amount of right lock to keep it in a straight line so the wheel looks off centre.
It doesn’t pull badly to one side but does seem to follow the camber of the road. At low speed the steering wheel position looks ok but it’s as you speed up it seems to be out.
I’ve tried driving on the other side of the road (opposite camber) but the results aren’t conclusive as the roads are just so busy.
The fact that the gear selector sits higher than the indicator stalk also exaggerates this as your brain wants to line the wheel up with them when however it would actually be off to the left if you did.
Not sure If I should take it back to the dealer with a risk of it being made worse or just live with it. Would appreciate other people’s views who have a GLC 43, do they tend to follow the camber? I did run a GLC 250d AMG Line and that was off to the left however it was not as road camber sensitive as this one.
Thanks
