- 2009 c220cdi sport saloon
Having just bought a 2009 C220cdi sport saloon with only 10500 mls done, I wondered if there was any way to improve the ride comfort. Personally I find it fairly harsh and uncomfortable after a Golf TDI. I guess I should have gone for an SE or something with 16" wheels and non sport suspension. It did not seem too bad on the test run, and the low mileage clinched it, but after an hour or two`s driving it starts to become a little uncomfortable. It`s got 17" wheels and continental tyres as standard. Another gripe is the panoramic sunroof, a lovely extra but restricts headroom a lot. My works car is an E class 250 estate which is a fair bit more comfortable although that also has low profile tyre set up. There is whats called a comfort mode which does not help, just affects gearbox I think? Perhaps a different tyre may help?? Also can anyone tell me if there is any sort of intelligent or variable suspension set up on these models. Thanks to any replies guys.
