W208 CLK front left losing grip on slow turns

Could also be the shocks. Get someone to make a video while you make the turn. You might see something during the turn itself.

You can then post the video for us to see.

...... unrelated, but I've got a thudding sound from the front left when when driving at speed over expansion gaps

Has the thud sound got worse..?

It sounds to me like caster/camber issues there. Personally, I would'nt use a big national company like Kwik **** to check alignment. Where in the UK are you based? You mention West side of M25..... I would use Absolute Alignmnet in Aldershot. Good guys that know their onions......

Also, the new arms fitted on the car? Are these genuine parts or aftermarket (sorry if I missed the details somewhere)? The reason for asking is that just the slightest difference in legth on a control arm will make a huge difference on camber/caster. Something to check and double check maybe?
