Abc coil Spring conversion

[Loomie]

First off hello to everyone lm new on here so I'm just finding my feet
Has anybody converted their w215 to coil springs and if so how did you fix the electronics
Also the 2green wires that come from the abc module in there own plug could some one tell what voltage they carry with no warning lights on the dash with engine running

I can't help you on the conversion question but bear in mind that the CL does not have anti-roll bars, it relies on the ABC system to do that function.

If you fit coils instead of ABC you'll have a car with no anti-roll capability; in other words it won't handle as well.

That should concentrate the mind on twisty roads!

No doubt someone will now post that "they know a bloke in America who's done it and reports no problems"

A friend of mine who lives in America has done this to his w220 and hasn't had any issues.

Hello to all the reason I'm changing is I don't want to spend more and more money on something that is not reliable
I've done a lot of research as to do the conversion and it's not a kit from the states it's going to be a bit of trial and error the mechanical side is not a problem for me it's electronics that is scaring me a bit

Buying a CL and removing the ABC is like buying an AMG and taking the engine out.
