      they just tell what can cause a problem with suspension but we still do not know what’s the voltage on compressor plugs (release pressure sensor and pump) , should the engine run during multimeter checks ? what’s the size of fuse in passenger legs compartment? location of compressor relay under the hood ? how to check compressor relay with multimeter ? all that is very important yet we have just guide where roughly problem might be ...

    I replaced mine when they popped with Arnott bags. A noticeable advantage is that they relieve pressure a minute after turning off the car. The OEM seemed to decend after quite a long time.

    The exhaust hanger near the level sensor might need some love next. Lucky that plug didn't start a fire as well.

    Very informative video. I have some same W211 wagon and just had both airbags replaced due to leaks and one side is now slightly higher than the other side. I do not have full Airmatic just airbags on the rears only. Is there any adjustments that can be made so that both rear wheels ride at the same height? Any pointers would be welcome.

    Could the air pressure depressurize all the way out if the vehicle is left on the lift for to long?

    A9/1y1 Airmatic pressure release valve or level sensor at the back. Check if you can hear any air loss near compressor or rear air bags. Id say if you have small hole in air bag it wont go down very quick, but if You hear air loss near compressor then its A9/1y1 as in my situation loss of air was quick.Good video overall.

    Hi I have a 2007 CLS 550 and its throwing the airmatic code: "Power Supply Valves Short Circuit to Ground" I checked for continuity on each electrical plug going into the valve block and there wasn't any. The resistance was greater than 1.5 ohms. Is there supposed to be continuity or is there only when the relay activates? Do i likely have a break in the wire? Can you please help me im really stuck!!!!

    Hey I have a 2014 Mercedes CLS550. When I first start my car it’s good then after like 30-60 minutes the stop vehicle vehicle too low message comes up and it’ll keep coming up. I’ll have to turn off car then turn it back on for it to stop then start again after a bit. Sometimes my car will sit low but not like low where it’s at the tires just lower then normal. It’s the front of the vehicle. Do you have any idea what it could be?

    I changed my front airmatic suspension from my w212 350cdi 4matic with a new original mercedes/monroe.
    Problem is that the car seems to be a little bit higher than before, does not absorbe shoks that well, like the airbag does not work.. and it feels a bit like a boat...
    No errors changing from comfort to sport or raising the car.. what can it be?
