I found this question because I was looking for the answer myself. I've looked a bit further and found that the "W" and "S" settings seem to refer to "Winter" and "Summer" settings. Though not for the E300, here's the review that leads me to that conclusion: http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/hot_lists/high_performance/german_performance/mercedes_benz_e55_amg_first_drive_review However, that seems to me to like an odd thing to have - I live in Ireland, and our summers are like other countries' winters these days, so I don't know what difference this setting would have to the handling or fuel consumption, or how the car is supposed to determine what weather we get in a given season. I had thought that it might be a language issue and that "W" might stand for "Wirtschaftlich" (the German word for "Economic") and "S" for "Standard"(guess what that means in English!!) - if you speak German, you will find it on this forum - http://www.motor-talk.de/forum/kauf-eines-c-240-t-t1849947.html But someone corrects it in a later post, stating "W=Winter", so I guess that's it.
