740 GLE leans to left side. 700

posted by  someone claiming to be Soren on  Thu May 6 14:07 CST 2004 [RELATED]

My 1991 740 GLE wagon seems to lean a little to the left when it's empty.
It's just a little bit and the car drives great.
Does anyone know what the reason could be?
Thanks,
Soren

Mine does too, left side. I thought it was due to the car being high mileage with 99% of it driver weight only. But not really convinced. I put balancing weights in the trunk, right side (a set of brake rotors and a hydraulic jack. Looks level now.

Dang, my 87 is doing the same thing, just posted this a few days ago on here.
In my case, new shocks/springs and such, still sags on left side. The response I've heard is that many do it....no one has given me an answer why. Bushing? Then which one(s)...don't know yet.
No help, just with you on this problem.

How can I find out if it's broken?
Thanks,
