I tend to agree that the ride quality isn't that great, however I'm running on 22 inch wheels which doesn't help. None the less it's not as smooth as my previous L322, but then again that did run on bigger tyres. I think the main concern with my car is it feels like it has 'wobbly legs' going over bumps, particularly on the near side. Front shock absorbers lower suspension arms and anti roll bar bushes have been replaced quite recently, but I suspect there may be other bushes in need of attention. In your case, the car has low miles for it's age, however degradation of rubber still occurs, although I don't think in should in that period of time. Additionally, because the cabin is so quiet, you do hear every bump, rattle and squeek. A four wheel alignment normally lets you know if anythings amiss so perhaps that might be your first course of action ? [/s]

There are known problems with the 2013/2014 front suspension, from shocks that have leaked oil into the air-springs making the ride harsh to other components that allow the wheels to shimmy, for which several threads exist.
