new tires made no difference.... but changed tranny fluid solved it! Make sure they drain the torque converter fluid also! Do not flush it

flex discs done, carrier mount/bearing done, trans and engine mounts done... next is front control arm bushings(lots of play there) contributing to 50mph+ vibration and rear shock mounts I believe is responsible for slight intermittent shudders... Mercedes vibrations are annoying but I got rid of 95% of it. Will report back along with new tires and see what the culprit finally was.
