Anyone here has had the same thing ? My car feels like its wonders all over the road if I let go off the wheel, it does it when ever the front tires start going over every little crack or road inperfection, also when changing lanes were it hits the little reflectors . I started noticing this when I installed a new pair of tires in the front , the previous pair were some china made forceum brand that had really soft compound but they sucked cuz they never balanced right, so I found 4 nearly new tires at the Mercedes dealer I work at and it now has started doing it. The tires are bridgestone pontenzas . I don't know why it does this because at the dealer I have driven a lot of Mercedes benz with the same tires and none of them do this. I know cant compare a Mercedes benz suspension to ours but still what the hell causes this on our cars.

did they mount them properly? IE: if the tread pattern only goes one direction, did they put them on backwards? lol.

also, your steering rack is 19 years old.... it will have some play in it.

Finally, check your steering shaft. theres a rubber joint in the middle to absorb vibrations - this deteriorates and causes play in the steering wheel.
