Problems with driving E55, steeling wheel
In these days I felt very uncomfortable when i driving my E55. I don't know how to describe. When I am driving in low speed or high speed, the steeling wheel is not shaking, but I hold on my steeling wheel I can feel very sensitively that the front wheels touching the surface of the road, even sometimes in some smooth rd or in motorway..... It's really annoy me when i was driving beacuse I have to keep my hand on steeling wheel.
I took the car to dealer, the MB mechanic took a drive and said it's about the tires in front wheel let me feel more sensitive about the surface of road. no any problems at all. But I don't remember it's like that when i just brought my car.......
What do you guys think about that ? Ang suggestions? Is it suspension problems ?
Cheers!

It could be the road. I float with my stock Conti's on highways with deep grooves that run in the same direction of the car (ie tire grooves as well). Any other surface is no problem.
Have Goodyear GS-D3's on my BMW with cross grooves and no issues at all on any surface.

As for your issue ,what tires are you running? what is the size and has the car been parked for a long time, as you might have flat spots

I don't know if its my PS2s or my road as I leave the house, but my suspension/road feel does feel off for the first few miles. I always chalked it up to them warming up, and the airmatic settling in.
