Here's my thoughts:

A new harness will set you back $700 from XXXX. Do it. Dont mess around with ebay alternatives or used this or that. Its not a hard job at all, no contorting required. Just take your time, follow path, unplug old, reconnect new. I did it on a 300E and it was pretty straight forward, easy.

Try taking the car to another shop and get a second opinion on your ATF leak. I had my 190E's transmission resealed after it started leaking from multiple points. It was $600 for the reseal.

Usually when the rear end gets bouncy is when you replace the spheres. Stiffer might mean you need to adjust the SLS level rod, it might be adding more fluid than is necessary.
