ride

Hello All, im in the process of going through the cls55 thoroughly to try and get it to drive straight. Even though its had all the arms replaced, track rods and a 4 wheel alignment, it still pulls to the left, badly. I noticed the other day, there seems to be a disparity in the ride...

Dear MB owners, First of all thank you for giving me access to these forums. I have a thought in my head which is bothering me since I bought our car 2 months ago. So we own a MB '63 plate B200 sport, 1.8 diesel 136bhp, automatic. The aspect of the car inside and out is insane. I got in love...

Hi, I have the sports model is it normal for the ride to be quite hard? My tyre pressures are around 250 Kpa would reducing the pressures make a difference? Does tyre wear have any effect on the ride I have Nexens on the front and Conteinentals on the rear. Should having it in...

My 2006 S211 E220 cdi. Ok there are 'better' cars on the road including many MB models I guess. I'm still sometimes surprised at the sheer quality of the drive this car provides, the ride, relative silence, wonderful SBC brakes (so far so good) great handling and precise steering. This all...

What's the ride quality like on an early to mid '90s W463 G Wagon?

So I've got W124 H&R coupe lowering springs fitted on my A124 cabrio (don't start...) and while the ride height is where I want it to be, the ride is reeeeeally bad. Now I understand this is due to lack of travel in the suspension. My question is, if any of you have experienced this, what was...

Hello What is the correct right height of a 1995 SL320 and a 1998 SL320 special edition as the latter seems to be too high on one side. The car has the 17" EVO style alloys and from the top of the tire to the wheel arch is 65mm. Where as the 1995 is only around 40mm. Is this too high? Thanks

So, last week I snapped a front spring on the motorway, no damage apart from a tyre and replacement of both front springs. Now, my car has always sat slightly nose down, the gap between tyre and arch front/back was always equel. I've now had 2 new front springs fitted at a MB specialist...

Hi to all - I've just purchased my first MB, a W211 E280 CDI Sport Estate with the 18" 10 spoke design. They look the business, but the ride quality is poor as they are 265/35 (yup......35!!) tyres at the rear which is the main source of the problem Therefore 2 questions: 1) Has anyone else...

I have a C55 and it seems to be riding lower than standard but the springs etc are standard so i'm wondering if the springs have been cut down as a stupid way of lowering the car!:eek: Does anybody know what the stock ride height is for a C55, Ideally with a point of reference say from the...

Hi guys, A bit of confusion that I'd like cleared up if possible, I'm wondering if all W211 spring suspension have the notches on the struts/shocks that allow for repositioning the spring seating height as seen in the picture below (3a), if not, was it only sport suspension? The car I've...
