Adv3nture Posted November 3, 2025 Share Posted November 3, 2025 Recently completed a four-wheel alignment, and the specifications indicate that everything is satisfactory. Is a steering adaption necessary for the vehicle's electronics to acknowledge the altered steering angle? The steering wheel remains slightly misaligned. Thank you very much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TypoQueen Posted November 3, 2025 Share Posted November 3, 2025 The inner tie rods possess an adjustable mechanism to guarantee that the steering wheel is centred. If misaligned, the steering wheel will be off-center. The probable culprit is that one of the rods is somewhat bent, rendering it slightly 'shorter'.This can be rectified through adjustment, namely by gently shortening the opposing side as well. The outcome will be a centralised steering wheel with a little tighter turning radius on one side than the other. The tie rod requires replacement alone if it is visibly bent; a slight bend is OK and can be adjusted as previously mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemmand Posted November 3, 2025 Share Posted November 3, 2025 Retract it. The initial action they should undertake is to centralise the steering wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GravyRocket Posted November 3, 2025 Share Posted November 3, 2025 The initial step should involve inspecting all suspension components for signs of wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightHawk47 Posted November 3, 2025 Share Posted November 3, 2025 During the completion of my C55, I brought my scantool, and the steering wheel remained immobilised while the tool indicated a zero-degree position. Somewhat excessive, although it achieved the desired outcome. Were any adjustments made to the rear? Are there modifications accessible at the rear of a 205?
