Also if you know how change your valve cover gaskets and reseal your valve cover breathers. Change all vacuum lines as well. These things as well make a difference.
i just received 8 brand new genuine Bosch coils and fitted them the other day, which seems to have improved things a little more.

I also bought back my old W210 E55, paid the same price to get it back and its had quite a bit of quality time spent on it!
