I did look at this before sending it in, but since i am new to this car, i did know what to look for...the car is solid in the back, shocks are excellent, and there is no wheel play or metal-to-metal noises.....

The alignment shop i took it to is a mercedes shop, they are better than the dealership, I know that for a fact. look where i live and you would know where i took it...i did not mention any specific problems while i was there because i was assuming this was an alignment only issue since my inspection yielded no results....but to be fair (to myself), they should have taken it to the highway since they are most likely familiar with these kinds of problems...

so what do you advise me to do? I am sure the problem is what you guys mentioned, and I am capable of doing the work my self, but I don't want to pay another $90 for an alignment after that.should I take it to the alignment shop again? they will probably want to replace everything back there since it looks original ( I cannot afford that now) ..i would be lucky if the alignment stays intact as Larry mentioned, but that depends on which links/bushings are the culprit, correct?

thanks,
