Some Mercedes-Benz S560 owners report experiencing persistent vibrations at speeds of 70+ mph after hitting a pothole, which may indicate issues with the suspension system. These vibrations and shimmying can suggest that the suspension requires attention. Additionally, wheel or alignment problems are common culprits for vibrations at specific speed ranges, prompting recommendations for tire rotation and balancing. Some owners also find that faulty engine mounts contribute to abnormal vibrations in their vehicles. Furthermore, an incorrectly-adjusted air intake system can lead to engine vibrations as well. Given the potential need for multiple rim and tire replacements, it is essential to address the underlying cause of these vibrations to prevent further damage and ensure a smooth driving experience. Consulting with a qualified mechanic or a Mercedes-Benz service center for a thorough inspection and diagnosis is advisable to identify the exact issue and implement necessary repairs.
