Having been advised that my 1997 E230 would soon need new engine mounts I took it to a good local garage who fitted new mounts and a new wishbone each side. However and as I have had mounts done before on another Merc I expected a smooth ride. However the car seems to pick up on every ridge on the road and feels very hard and rigid. There is no vibration through the steering wheel and on nice level surfaces the ride is smooth.I called in to the garage a few days ago and mentioned the 'problem' to the boss. He said that as both mounts and wishbones had been renewed this was to be expected. Later on I thought this doesn't make sense as on a new Merc all the bits are new but of course there is no hardness. Could anyone advise?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
