re: 300e still floating like a boat
I installed Mercedes Sportline front and rear swaybars and Bilstein sport shocks on my car, and it made a big difference. I still have the original (soft) springs, so most of the difference is in the corners, and the car isn't too jittery over small bumps. At 225K mi., I'm thinking of replacing all of the suspension bushings over the winter, because the handling just isn't as predictable as it used to be. I was irritated when the blower motor (AND) aux fan brushes went south over the last month, but then I figured most cars would be scrap metal by now, and this one is just getting its second wind! And it just feels like part of me.... as one car mag columnist described a car several years ago - like putting on well-worn jeans, his favorite old cableknit sweater and topsiders.
