While DYNAMIC SELECT controls shift times, throttle response, and exhaust flow, RIDE CONTROL adjusts damping and suspension stiffness. RIDE CONTROL is actually older than DYNAMIC SELECT, but they work together nicely, especially if you know what you&#8217;re doing.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-13871 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/178\/2016\/02\/08203408\/2017-Mercedes-Benz-AMG-C43-C_o.jpg\" alt=\"2017 Mercedes-AMG C43\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/178\/2016\/02\/08203408\/2017-Mercedes-Benz-AMG-C43-C_o.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/178\/2016\/02\/08203408\/2017-Mercedes-Benz-AMG-C43-C_o-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Benefits of AMG Ride Control<\/h3>\n<p>By keeping the engine settings separate from the suspension settings, AMG drivers can fine tune the car to drive and handle more precisely than Mercedes-Benz vehicles with DYNAMIC SELECT only. This way, you can make the suspension really stiff while in Economy mode to get the best gas mileage around a track. You can also do the opposite if you want to go fast but don&#8217;t want to be uncomfortable. Each variation has trade-offs, which is why Mercedes-Benz is leaving it up to us to decide what the best combination is.<\/p>\n<h3>How to Adjust AMG Ride Control<\/h3>\n<p>If you own a 2016 Mercedes-AMG C-Class or something similar, you may already have this technology in your car. To adjust it, play with the buttons in the center console to the left of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mbscottsdale.com\/blog\/2016-mercedes-benz-gle-comand-navigation-system\/\">COMAND NAVIGATION pad<\/a>. The picture on the button looks like a spring. While you&#8217;re at it, don&#8217;t be afraid to play with all of the buttons.
