Tire Pressure

When you buy your new E55, check your tire pressure immediately! I drove around for two weeks with dangerously low tire pressure (30-35 psi front-rear) before I decided that the 30 hz pulsation at 120 mph might be tire pressure-related.

The dealership must not have seen the tire pressure label inside the driver's door.

I agree 100%. I have had several issues with tire pressure and with those damn rubberbands for tires you can never really tell how low you are. Be careful with an E55 though- overinflation will cause immediate wear with the wide wheels in the rear.
