I don't know if your trailer is special, but generally you want to have the cars on them balanced over the axles. If a car is too far back, the trailer will rock and make the towing car sway and move a lot. If it's too far forward like that it'll make the front end of the towing vehicle light, making it sway also, but under extreme circumstances can also make breaking nearly impossible.

Because new car designers and engineers aren't as smart as they think they are. I bet if you talked to an auto engineer from the 70's they see what they're doing with cars now and scream. One such example is: I have an F150. The battery went dead and sat for a while. When I charged up the battery the power windows didn't work. I found out the "ecu has to re-learn that you have power windows" why in the hell are the power windows connected to the ECU? It's a freaking switch that makes the window go UP and the window go DOWN. No complicated wiring harness wired to the ECU is necessary. Same as the sun roof, the power rear sliding window, everything. There's actually a printed circuit board under the switches that is a common fail point.

@@muskokamike127 wrong, they are ensuring that basic maintenance is done at the dealer, which will discourage the diy guy from doing any larger repairs or maintenance if they make the most basic of procedures more difficult. It ensures most, if not all maintenance is performed in house, generating revenue and upselling opportunities for other repairs. It is a smart business move when you already have a demand for your brand simply because of it's name, people will still buy it and brag about how elite the service being performed is.

I've owned a 05 E55 for a few years. Hands down its the best car ever!! Sadly, mine was hit in the same area as yours. So its getting rebuilt.. Had to stop the video to search for the CL65 you showed. That is the rarest of the modern AMGs.. one of my dream cars.

With it being a 2003, I would change the radiator as well. Since you're there. The early 2003 had issues with the integrated trans cooler that would mix with coolant.

Nice car Sam , i bought two of them because all the videos of Alex from legitstreet. As soon i got the second one the suspension on the front blew up. I did the conversion to bc coilovers from fcp euro, all I can say GOOD LUCK IT'S SUCH A PAIN TO INSTALL THEM, the rear ones the front takes 15 min per wheel. However after i went 170 mph decided to sell it, it's crazy fast. If anyone interested let me know

@@catalinxnecula That's not an absolute. Plus air suspensions are not as reliable over time, and are expensive to repair. It's only a bad idea if you are committed to keeping the car all original. If I had a E55 I'd want to track it, so I would replace the OE air ride too.

I just got all my wife's BMW parts from fcp euro. Unreal. I had a quote from BMW lakeland for $11k. I ordered all the parts using the part numbers for basically 1/8 price they had. Then had local mechanic put in and total cost was $1200. Saved almost $10k. Oh and I have a lifetime warranty on them

I've seen some bad hits get fixed yes, but costs to do isnt worth it. Plus why fix a insane bad rear hit with a front hit car?

I worked for another attorney in 2006. He had just bought one of these new a couple years earlier. In the year I worked at that firm, the car was in the shop at least once a month. The dealership was a block from the office. He'd come to my office and say wanna take a walk? We'd go pick it up and wait for something else to break. It was an astonishing car, but it was always broken. I can't imagine one 16 years old.
