W220 S class suspension

[flango]

Just been asked a question I don't know the answer to and Google doesn't want to be my friend this evening

Do all W220 models have air suspension and if the answer to that is no does anybody know which ones don't

TIA

Some have ABC, I think if it has the abc button, then it has hydraulic...

Going from bad to worse then I'd rather deal with airmatic than ABC

Do any run a conventional set up? And on another note do any have SBC

The 55 and 600 have ABC hydraulic.
The rest have airmatic.
May have been an optional extra on the 500, Not sure.

No SBC. Arnott do coil spring conversion.
Airmatic isn't the big problem lots of people make it out to be.

The biggest problem we used to see on airmatic was the valve block, any other weak areas

I have heard the airmatic pumps can be rebuilt easily!
