Just had new front shocks replaced and the car is sitting really high, what causes this? Could the new shocks be too long?

What would be the symptoms of a bad rear diff subframe mount besides sag?

Just changed the valve due to the arm on it breaking. The car now seems to sit normal at the rear when stationary but the front sits high. when the car gets up to 40/50 mph the front seems to go lower making the rear seem higher. Is the valve the only thing that maintains pressure to the...

Just installed new spheres and the car rides just like before, hard as nails! Do they have a shelf life or could it be the rams ?

Are both hoses replaceable? (one from the reservoir) to pump, And the one on the left side of the pump (to rear valve) I assume . Mechanic said the left one to the rear had a slight leak, I thought the one that goes to the valve was metal all the way

Anyone know if the colour codes on springs need to match? I've got one with 2 blues and one red and one with 2 reds and 1 blue code? Cheers

Just replaced the engine and tranny mounts, now the car has a bad shake at all speeds. Any ideas? Should the engine shocks have been replaced as well? Cheers!

Ok finally got around to trying to figure out why the front of the car is sitting too high. Car is not sagging at the rear, looks correct height. If I move the lever up on the valve the car rises. But if I try to lower the car again nothing happens. I even drove the car a few miles with the...

Front end is sitting right up in the air by about 2 inches more than the rear which seems to be the correct height. Seems to get worse after filling up with petrol. I'm stumped!

Just got some new lemforder mounts, anyone know what the two blue dots are for on the sides? For lining up maybe? Also I noticed that they'd etched the MB star of the side and but left the merc part# so I guess be the same ones you get from the dealer.

okay, Had the sls valve replaced today. Basically the old one wasn't raising or lowering the car. Drove home from work and the seemed harsh, I looked underneath at the valve and the leveling arm was pointing downwards about 30 degrees. I know It's supposed to be parallel with the sway bar...

Hi, Just noticed fuel dripping from the hose situated next to the fuel pump. The one that points downwards, kind of looks like an overflow pipe. Any ideas?

Tried to adjust the leveling valve. Car won't raise up or lower down . Also valve is red hot to the touch. Any ideas. Bad valve maybe?

Rear drivers side sitting a bit low, could it be accumalator or hose from accumalator to hydraulic ram. question is if it is the ram can you replace these individually or in pairs, I heard they don't provide any dampening. Have noticed a very slight bounce just after coming to a stop.

Anybody know if Lemforder is an actual supplier to Mercedes? Or just an OEM Manufacturer? Cheers

Hi, I have a strange problem with her rear end. Put in new accumalators about a year ago, but now the rides become kind of spongy. The thing is the rear of the car bounces from side to side more than if you pushed down like to do to test shocks? The reverse. Any ideas anyone...

Ok, so I had the pump seals replaced with new ones. It seems to still be losing fluid. Either they didn't do it right or it's leaking internally somewhere else? Any ideas... Someone mentioned timing chain case, if so is this a big fix or could it be leaking somewhere else into the engine? Any...

Is the sls pump on these cars in tandem with the power steering pump or is it seperate?

I keep having to top the hydraulic fluid on my 87 560 sec. I checked underneath the car and there are no visible leaks coming from the front or rear. Can there possibly be an internal leak? Any help would be much appreciated! Cheers
