2025 GLC43

I have a 2025 GLC 43 and find the ride quite choppy. Does anyone know of a solution eg softer springs or shocks and a source for the parts

Tire pressure?

Gas flap numbers as a starting point.
Do you have runflats? They have a firmer ride.

Car was delivered with Michelin Pilot Sport SUV tires, I switched that out to Michelin Pilot sport 4S and lowered the pressures from 38 psi to 32 psi

Did you option Active Ride Control? I think that is what it is called or is it standard for this vehicle?

I thought the 43 came standard with air suspension. Maybe they changed that in later models.
