Does anyone know of a reasonably priced tool which can successfully calibrate the Airmatic on my R class? I bought icarsoft MB3 but it turns out this can't calibrate despite the supplier confirming it could. I've also seen loads of clips and details of how it's done. mostly they don't make any sense with people inputting vales within the range but without measuring these before hand
This is how I see it; you measure the angles using the Romness guage and these are input into the ecu which then calculates the adjustment required to level the car, provided all the sensor values are then within range, calibration is successful, this sets the new 0 position which the control will try and maintain as best it can, mine hasn't thrown any codes but since freeing off all the sensor links it rides high on the back, with the left occasionally going far too high which suggest the sensor is faulty, so i am replacing both rear sensors, maybe this will cure th issue but i think it will need a calibration and was hoping to do it myself, if possible.
