Lowering messes up the camber and the adjustment bolts don't bring it back within spec.
John, nice image but you'd be better taking it either straight on sideways or at a stonger angle and a bit lower to get a 3/4 1/4 view.
Look at my album for ideas
Lowering does change the camber angles (and possibly others too) but they can be brought back into spec, just need to find someone who knows what he is doing.
ADC will lower the car automatically depending on speed and driver inputs. It's a very cleverly thought out system. Comfort and handling, as you choose!
Quoting from the MB info
"With the comfort and sport switch (N72s25) the driver can choose
between either a comfort-oriented or 2 sporty performance maps.
The "comfort" setting maintains the damping within the comfortable
range as far as the driving style and road conditions will allow. The
"Sport 1" setting makes the damping somewhat "harder". The
"Sport 2" setting shifts the damping faster to a somewhat "harder"
rating. At a speed in excess of 40 km/h in "Sport 2" the
suspension is also constantly set to hard (auxiliary air volume off).
Similarly the level control for Sport 1 and 2 lowers the vehicle level
by 10 or 15 mm."
Not sure 15mm would shift the angles outside tolerance, considering how the car (any car come to that) lowers when loaded?
I dropped mine iirc by 20mm and it was enough to put it out
Because you dropped the static level by 20mm. With ADS the start point remains the same. The drop is only done dynamically so to speak.
When I had MB check my geometry they said the camber angle was OS. They had to adjust the static ride height (using STAR) before they could recheck the angles and all was then in spec.
