Which ones are best to buy ? My drivers side strut sinks over several days if not driven, all the rest are OK ? Any ideas what to do instead of replacing ?
@@CALIREBUILDABLES when I start the car I can hear the air compressor turning on for a second then suddenly shuts off..car is down on four wheels..so maybe also my compressor is broken including a strut or a air bag?
@@CALIREBUILDABLES I forgot to mention that for sure my rear air bag for sure it was leaking so maybe my compressor is not raising the car because of that leak?
That could be it what caused the compressor to fail, check this link out bro it will help you a lot it has pictures and videos www.mercedesmedic.com/air-suspension-troubleshooting-airmatic-visit-workshop/
Hi I have wdc164ml mercedes i never had any problems i removed rear height sensors to check and put them back lowered the vehicle start vehicle rear of car doesn't lift what have i done wrong help me please
Hey it might depending on what the connector connects to but if you hear the compressor running than most likely there is a leak somewhere man but if you don't hear the compressor then maybe it's bad or it's getting no power.
All I do is replace all the hoses to the air pump with cheap hose from advance auto or Oriole petboys autozone for like 5$ buy it in 3 feet cut replace reset battery pull fuse and or relay for automatic, reset battery again, these cars are simple clean religiously your parts so you dont have to take your baby in to the dealership. Also buy all oils at walmart go to car section spending 39 dollars for just 5 quarts of oil is nonsense to me. Also if that red light comes on its telling you that your cars going to have aux battery problems.( only effects shifting and breaking, dont sit in your car tryna figure out why your shifters not shifting from drive and nutrial to reverse and park. But if the pump is bad go to Ebay or Amazon or junk yard if it's close and send that shit to your house ,disconnect back battery front dont matter seeing its breaking and shifting .what he did was good to, but I'm in my 20s and I collect these in the worst condition to see if I can fix them .
Hello I've replaced my air compressor my 2 rear air bags and front right air strut but still getting the malfunction message on my dash and car lowers overnight rear right and front right any ideas?
Ich habe eine frage die sicherung für Kompresser geht immer kaputt und auto geht immer tief.ich habe die Kabel kontrolliert alles ist gut damit. Aber die Sicherung geht immer kaput. Ich werde mich freuen für ein antwort
Were there any other symptoms that happened when the error came up like super stiff suspension? That's what's happening in mind. Replaced accelerator sensor for code on it. Still there. Error message pops up. Suspension stiff. Any fixes for this? I need to pull the wheel off tomorrow.
I believe that if the error message is still popping the problem is still there man and I can't remember if my suspension was stiff but maybe you should check every wheel to make sure everything looks ok.
@@scottp6761 Thank you for the response. My e550 was suffering from the same stiffness for a year now, albeit intermittently during city driving. It has 2 weeks since I got it from the shop. They stated that they couldn't figure it out, but whatever they did the code has not returned (great news because i drive a lot). It sounds to me like they connected the wiring properly by accident (the codes stated issue was coming from the front right side). Something the past 2 shops i went to over the course of a year couldn't do
@@VanishPenguin those sensors are known to be intermittently bad. Replace it. Its prob just malfunctioning. Not an expensive part. Order from dealer and do it yourself. It sits right on top of strut. 2 min jon
Original connector housings cost like $5 from the dealership. For some bloody reason, I haven't met a single mechanic who changes them, everyone will make ghetto repairs like this. Fix it properly ppl, it takes less time to cut the old connector plastic, check the cable pins and fit a new one! Click, its brand new. I know since my maf connector was broken for 5 years and struggled with it everytime for €3.61
Without computer and diagnostic program there is a lot of work to check all airmatic system. I dont think you check one right front side and there is the problem...magic.
Yea it's really hard to find something hidden but as you can see in my video I started to inspect that side for an obvious reason so I don't see any magic there only common sense and no I didn't have any program or device back then man I hope this helps👍✌
At 0:30 what are you sensoring with the blure on you speedo cluster?😂 you already showed the mileage a few secs before that lol t's 176k lol
Great job! I am sure this will work for many years.
Thanks bro and the main thing is i know where the problem is located and that it's not something major to fix, thanks for watching man👍✌
The air struts aren't expensive anymore online

flawless victory!
Your comment reminded me of mortal combat bro thanks for watching i appreciate it 👍✌
my car is down on all four wheels is airmatic..do I need to change all rear air bags and front air struts?
You may have a leak so that means you need to find the leak and fix it maybe is just a fitting or one strut bro.
@@CALIREBUILDABLES when I start the car I can hear the air compressor turning on for a second then suddenly shuts off..car is down on four wheels..so maybe also my compressor is broken including a strut or a air bag?
It sounds like the compressor is the problem bro, did you you check the fuse and relay? You might want to start with that

Nit sure bro, maybe you misplaced the censor or damaged the sensor.
I hear air leak from my front ride side air shock so that means i have leak & gonna have replace air strut den
Check the fittings first bro👍
my 2008 w211 has dropped down right front and right rear. what could it be the valve body?
Not sure but it's a leak somewhere bro.
What If all 4 front and back won’t rise. Could 1 connector effect them all?
Hey it might depending on what the connector connects to but if you hear the compressor running than most likely there is a leak somewhere man but if you don't hear the compressor then maybe it's bad or it's getting no power.
Hey did you ever get that problem fixed I'm having that same problem with mine right now
the tyres are worn out but the wheels looking decent cool
Yea those momo wheels look really nice on it👍
What are the wheel pecs?
The are 19" MOMO GTR but I can't remember if they were staggered it's been a long time since I had it I hope that helps a bit👍✌

Have you tried the airline fittings? They are pretty cheap , maybe start with the ones by the compressor.
@@CALIREBUILDABLES will try
Yea check them out first bro
@@CALIREBUILDABLES it wasn't them bro also level sensors are fine
Shoot it's just one of those cases because I remember you swapping some parts already
