[QUOTE="Schwepps, post: 434643, member: 3592"] So Lim Tayar mechs also use the "it's normal" excuse :) Firstly, I have both an E90 and a Merc W211, and neither one pulls to one side. Secondly, steering will pull to the lower side if ride heights or thread wear are uneven. So if the right side is lower (as in your car too) it should pull to the right, not the left. Based on your KDS readout, your car is setup with a bias to the right, as RHD cars are supposed to be to compensate for crowning, especailly on highways. Many things can make a car pull one side. Even a sticking brake pad. Look up 'tire conicity' to see what tire manufacturing defects can do. [/QUOTE]
