Riding Height Adjustment: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1996 Mercedes-Benz C220 and 1995 Mercedes-Benz C220. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Prior to performing wheel alignment, perform preliminary visual and mechanical inspection of wheels, tires and suspension components. See PRE-ALIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS in WHEEL ALIGNMENT THEORY/OPERATION article.

NOTE: Before checking vehicle level or riding height specification, inspect wheels for damage, check tires for proper inflation, ensure spare tire is in trunk with tools, remove any extra items from vehicle (luggage, etc.), and ensure fuel tank is full. If fuel tank is less than full, substitute missing fuel with approximately 6 lbs. of weight for each gallon of missing fuel.
