I looked up the range of caster and camber specs for your car, so I'll give you the mid-range specs.
Caster 5 to 6 degrees POSITIVE
Camber 1/2 to 1 degree NEGATIVE
Front Toe 0 deg. 10' (+/- 10')
Rear Toe 0 deg. 33' (+/- 7')

I think my Rear Camber is a lot more than 1 degree NEGATIVE, Front Camber is closed to zero. My 2000 E430 is stock, I did not lower the car. I would like to know what are the specs of my car, so that I can talk to the service advisor when I take my car in for alignment. Where did you get this specs ? I could not find it in the MB owner manual.
Is it okay to have my car aligned to the following specs ?
Caster: 5 to 6 degrees POSITIVE
Front Camber: 0 degree
Rear Camber: 1/2 degree NEGATIVE
Front Toe: 0 deg.
Rear Toe: 0 deg. 30'
Thank you ILUVMILS.
