It’s options. I’ve seen all sorts of models have all sorts of suspension.

The suspension systems for the e53 are:
The 1st & 2nd suspensions listed above could both be optioned as "comfort" or "sport suspensions" with the latter "sport" suspension slightly lowering the vehicle and is engineered (obviously) for sportier handling. The facelift 4.8is came standard with EHC II. The facelift 3.0 & 4.4 could be optioned with any 3 of the above systems which could be either the conventional or sport version.

I am not sure. I think it has something to do with the air bag suspension at the rear and how stiff they are and also the other parts that make up the stiffer suspension. Wow, what a difference though.

The word comfort does seem to be used about. Comfort seats, comfort windscreen (ie the green stripe winscreen).

If you have chrome trim exterior trim, then you probably have the standard rear SLS (I guess this would be the "comfort") suspension. If you have shadowline trim, sport seats, and 3 spoke sport steering wheel (and any of the other things that indicate the sport pkg)...then you will have the sport-tuned rear SLS system. If you have a switch on the dash to the left of the steering wheel that allows you to raise/lower the vehicle...then you have dual SLS (EHC II) system. Some owners prefer to remove the SLS suspensions...but apparently you like it (as do I). I think it offers a great ride when working properly.

In the states, 'climate comfort' windscreen is the added film inside the double panes of glass. It reflects UV and appears more 'blue' than green, including the stripe. Below, I added an old pic from an old thread about them.
I've added it to my E39 and the E53. Twice on the E53.

Hey Prop & others,
Can you get a photo of your driver's side glass top edge showing the layers? My gulf edition seems different than normal (heat exposure?) but I don't see gulf glass as a separate set of part numbers... Thanks Sent from my SM-A730F using Tapatalk

BTW, you still have no model/model year/build date info listed in your posts or signature. This makes answer some of your posts not as complete as they can be...because if someone wanted to share detailed info in answer a question you've asked...they couldn't look up the info to provide it to you...because we have no clue where you fall in the production range for the e53. Just a suggestion...you may want to add some vehicle info in a permanent signature or vehicle info.

Yeah I know about the part numbers but having a "Gulf" package it sure seems like different glass and some unicorn coolant and/or modified computer settings to handle the 50c-60c heat.
When I get back to Saudi Arabia I'll post some pics of the glass layers. I looked and my page shows the 3 cars/info under automobiles, but let me know if it isn't visible when looking at my profile as I've had issues with Tapatalk before. Sent from my SM-A730F using Tapatalk
