Right side of car is sinking??
2002 E430
my set up is h&r springs, bilstein shocks, #1 pads all around. had this setup for atleast a year.
my right side of my ride is sinking. started to slowly sink the last two months. used to have a two finger gap between fender and top of tires, now the right side is at a one finger tuck, while the left side is still fine. i have not had the chance to look at the suspension yet. but, before i do is there anything i should look for.

Not an issue
on his year and model
springs take at least 6 months to settle in and take a memory.That is when you play with pads and set final ride height.
inspect your mount to be sure.However i think you will find the spring has just settled in.

what pads # are you running and what shocks(sport)?

H&R pad#1
I noticed it settle faster when I had 5 adult included myself in the car a fews time aweek. You might want to check your tire pressure or what in your trunk. I wouldn't worry about it, it will work it self out

One corner
only,get the correct thickness pad.Pad sizes and numbers on benzworld.org w210 section diy,
by raymond g,and install it on the corner that needs it.Won't change spring rate will level car out
if the others settle down you remove the pad and match them up again.
