One of the interesting things about adjusting the box is that you do not want to over turn the adjustment. This tightens up the box, hides slop, and prevents self centering.
When I adjust, I always make sure there is still some play in the wheel before I lock it down.
The new box,is it possible that someone sneaked a used with too much adjustment in it into your car? Or. you might try turning the adjustment IN a bit and see what happens.

I am aware of this adjustment. I made it a few times on my one 300SD, it helped a bit but the box is still crap.
I believe that on the newly installed box (which was done last week) that I should not have any responsibility to adjust it at all. If it was old and out of warranty,etc sure I'd do it. but not with something like this.
