Well I did me the right thing, and took my S280 in to have the tracking checked following replacement of the ball joints and both camber arms and lower arms on the front suspension.
As suspected it was quite a way out. Upon driving away from the garage the ABS BAS and ESP lights came on. I'd gone only a few hundred yards when this happened.
The garage plugged in the machine and took out the fault codes, and as soon as I drove away on they came again. Each time always within a mile or so from starting.
The steering wheel is also now at 10 oclock and 4 oclock, not 9 to 3.
Another trip to the garage and they are talking now about wheel alignment sensors (or was it steering angle sensor?), I cant remember.
Makes me wonder why I bothered. Suppose I had to for the sake of my tyres, but it's still galling all the same.
Thanks for any advice.
