Hi,
Can anyone help me with the correct part number for the rear W140 ADS strut. Also can anyone explain to me whether the strut used on vehicles with only ADS is the same or different from the one used on vehicles which have both SLS and ADS. My car is a W140 s320 with ADS.
regards
Hi Everyone,
The front driver's side airmatic shocker has started leaking, and the guys have told me it's a new unit that's needed. I think it's sulking as I've not used it for a while!
Is the airmatic strut a standard item?
Thanks,

I have a knock from the rear suspension strut on the right rear, it knocks when you drive and sits 15mm higher on that side.
When the car is bounced on its suspension you can feel that the noise is internal to the strut. When I cracked the oil feed to it there seemed to be air in the oil but...

I've an '05 cl500 with about 50k miles on it and the front driver strut has started to creak a lot on any sort of bump. It also does it if I use the dash button to raise or lower the car.
