the car is clean, but when i sit in it, the steering wheel is uneven. I am not talking about alignment of the wheel/road/steering, but the steering wheel in relation to the dash...

It looks and feels like the steering wheel is closer to the dash on the left side(9 o'clock) and the right side(3 o'clock) is a bit further.

Im just curious if any one else has this "problem."

I do not think the car is affected in any way...

 

I have the same in my sl-320.

I would be grateful for any information on that.

Thanks

 

You know there are flexible joints in the steering that allow you to loosen bolts and move the steering wheel almost anywhere you want it, including shimming the seats and wheel for a "perfect fit" to your body. you can get it so "right" that if you sell the car, you may never feel comfortable in anything else. The problem is most shops are too busy or lazy to sit with you for this fitting. A good dealer may, and you will have to pay them, of course. A race shop can make the car fit like a glove. I had my steering collum adjusted down .75 inch and the front of the seats raised .5 inch. But I mean the shop may be filled with people who need to get to their business the next day, so you will have to pay someone to take the time to fit it. Its not difficult.
