Suspension too soft
 

hi, can anyone tell me about making the suspension on my E320 touring firmer especially when the back yard of the boot/trunk is fully loaded after raiding an italian supermarket?

our youngest needs a firm ride to avoid feeling unwell.

I wont do the work myself, local merc guy will.

thanks for any advice to this new guy.

Wagon has Self leveling shocks on the back not much to be done except different higher rated springs,you can't use shorter springs like amg or H and R, they would be to short for the stock shocks.Try a set of spring blocks that fit in between the coils,cheap fix and will stiffen it up a bunch.

Likely you youngest suffers because the ride is not dampened enough...perhaps heavyduty or sport shocks from Bilstein will resolve your child's motion sickness.

Can anyone tell me how to bleed the rear self leveling shock system on my 4matic wagon after replacing them?
