For my W211, it is 82 - Electrical System and 120 - Pane Wiper. Hopefully should be similar for yours.

There is always the sense of occasion when you bring out the Benz... or is it just a Bentley thing... You don't get that with a Focus. :D

From what you describe, it seems like the car knows it is too low so the compressor starts but because the car isn't coming back up to height, the compressor stops. I would start with the basics as in: Was the compressor refurbishment successful and is it producing air/pressure as it should...

The thinking is that the ATF will have metallic particles causing a degree of electrical conductivity which can cause weirdness. Regardless of which route you take, i.e. replace valve body or spruce up your existing one, keep us posted of what you find as you disassemble.

The pilot bushing has o-rings which fail due to age and heat cycling. Obviously changing the pilot bushing will require ATF draining as a minimum hence best to combine with a filter change.

My pilot bushing was bone dry externally too but when I released the connector it was full of ATF. Same story with the TCU connector - looked nice and dry externally but when released from TCU, all the pins were full of ATF as well as the sockets.

Also take a look at the electrical connector plug where it plugs into the gearbox. You may find that it is full of ATF which can also cause weirdness and there is also the possibility that ATF will have wicked itself up to the transmission control module. I have the same year and model car as...

600 - THRUST ARM - A2303500329 (LEFT) & A2303500429 (RIGHT) 610 - SCREW - N000912012153 620 - WINDOW - A1403521376 630 - NUT - N000000003276 640 - SCREW - A0139901301 650 - SCREW - A0039901922 660 - WINDOW - A0069906340 670 - HOUSING - A2303520034 680 - THREADED PLATE - A2303571042

I would suggest the first thing to do would be to get a sniff test done to eliminate any possibility of a head gasket issue.

Based on your VIN, the following part numbers apply: Cover - A2118301313 Rear weatherstrip is one piece ( I assume you mean the rubber seal that goes all round) - A2117401178

The handle is in two parts - handle and frame which are available separately: A2206800214 - Handle A2206840265 - Frame

That connector looks fine but you would need to join 2 pins inside it to join the green/violet and green wire of the D6 unit.

You will need to join the green/violet and green wire of the D6 unit to resume the signal connection when the D6 unit is disconnected. How you do this is up to you whether using a plug or joining/insulating wires.

Yes there will be no signal from the fuel rail pressure sensor to the ECU. So if you are intent on removing the unit then it should be easy enough. The green/violet cable from the rail sensor on pin 59 in Plug M is currently cut and joined to the green/violet and green wire of the D6 unit...
