Excessive Road Noise E240
I have an E240 2003, 66K from new, one previous owner.
The amount of cabin noise is very disappointing on the motorway, it has Dunlop MO tyres 225 width. I used to own a V6 Vauxhall omega which was incredibly quiet even at speeds approaching 100mph. The Merc is far noisier, has anyone else observed this cabin noise and does anyone know what is that Merc have left out that would reduce the noise levels ?

I prize W211 as one of the quietest cars. Much quieter than prelifted W210 with paddle mirrors.
So your complain brings tires to mind.
