Hi,
The rear end of my E500 (Starmark, 52K) is bouncy. The feeling is manifested by bouncing with FINGERS and when changing lanes at speed and when accelerating hard (heavy squat - not experienced when suspension was working normally).
The dealer changed the nitrogen cells.
There is no change in the suspension characteristics. The only change is that the rear ride height has dropped significantly.
Wheel centre to fender is 35cm front and 37cm back. Car actually looks lowered in the back.
Any ideas as to what is causing these problems?
Thanks
