airmatic

Ok so I haven't had the car long so not sure if I should worry but the whole car lowers itself when standing for a period of time (overnight etc). Now as soon as I start the car the pump kicks in and it inflates the struts to normal driving height and if I press the raise button it displays the...

Hi guys. Silly question. Where are the controls for the airmatic suspension. Pics would be perfect :)

Hello All, My nearside rear suspension drops overnight so the tyre is under the arch. I have diagnosed the fault to be a leak at the reservoir with possible internal corrosion of the hose. I have tried but am damned if I can get that hose off, what makes it even more difficult is that the...

I have trawled through 6 pages of airmatic posts on this form but can't seem to find an answer to my current issue. I have a 2003 Estate that I bought a month ago and today realised I had a puncture and the car was also not level, however after inflating the tyre back to correct pressure I...

Being aware of the ABC & related issues that some s-classes have suffered(expensive fixes for some) & also hearing that some e-class owners have had airmatic related issues it dawned on me that as far as i can find(searching the forum/internet)the cls airmatic seems to be very reliable,does it...

I'd always felt the car sat a little high at the front even when on Sport II setting. Yesterday I went to see Acid at MSL www.mslcentre.biz and he lowered it via STAR. The difference is subtle, but I feel it looks more purposeful than before. It's very strange to see someone push buttons...

Hi im after an airmatic suspension strut for a s class,can anyone help?

This might be abit of novice question but im confused as different models come with sort of suspensions with different settings and different issues but all the terms used for them seem to be the same. The one thing i have learned is that the ABC system is quite prone to failure and very...
