New W220 owner with a few questions (i did search)
Hi guys, been enjoying this beauty for about two months now. Had three Benzes before but not like this one. Absolutely owesome.
Since i've never driven another S class i have nothing to compare to so maybe you can help.
It seems to me that the car is too stiff in Comfort mode. I would expect it to be softer. Also it seems like i'm getting some jumpiness when hitting bumps in Sport 1. As if bad shocks (on regular car) but in sport 2 its fine.
Any thoughts? '04 S500

We're talking about matters of preference when we say "too soft" and "some jumpiness." It's a little hard to tell if anything is wrong.
What size wheels and tires are you running? What tire pressures are you using?

When in comfort mode it feels about the same as my CLK500 did. I would think S be softer.
