@DennisGoodwin I got your email bud and I tried replying but i got an undeliverable response because the outlook reply address was outlook_0D812372E5E235D5@outlook.com so hoping you get this. Shoot me a message on here regarding compressing your lines and your other question... give me more details on your question about replacing the line that broke leading to your valve body. Also, i didn't have to compress the lines so educate me more on what your situation is... shoot me email maknificent2@gmail.com if you need to send pics for clarity.
Awesome tutorial. Thanks for taking your time to film this while you were doing the work. It's hard enough to do the repair and then to film it, also. Thanks again, just what I needed.
@KirkAuck 🙏🏿appreciate the kudos bud. If this helped @ least one person the effort was worth it so glad it helped!
Your video is very helpful. My w211 E500 wagon 4matic's front is low to the ground on both sides. I purchased both front air struts but didn't think of the block that you showed on this video. It is unlikely that both struts go out at the same time, so I'm gonna check it out first before replacing those struts.
Thank you for sharing your video.
Thanks so much for taking the time to make this! Especially when it's so tight for space under there.. I hope you got a refund on your new leaking air strut!
Always double check 👍 getting ready to swap out the air struts, rotors, pads and battery of my 2005 S430. I how I have no issues!
Great video! I think this is the only video on UA-cam that addresses this component. And believe me, I have been looking for the last few years. Thanks man!
glad it helped! OR did it?
@@Maknificent12now I'll be doing this repair next week. I will keep you updated. Still a great tutorial video.
Hey Man! Thanks for this video. It's the only one I could find on replacing this part that was so thorough. My 2000 S430 is riding like a 60's Toyota Corolla and when its freezing outside or if i jack up one wheel the system deflates until I start the car up. I'm suspecting the valve block is bad since I've changed the struts. One thing I like to do is a little cleaning as I go to keep dust from entering the connectors when I take them apart. A quick shot of air or quick wipe with a dry rag is all that's needed. I also plan to change the filter while I'm in there. They can become fouled or, in extreme cases harbor condensation. Again, Thanks!
@Humble glad it helped brotha! 🙏🏿thnx for watching, & excellent feedback! Let us know how it turned out when done!
Thanks for posting/sharing this, even though it apparently turned out not to be your specific leak problem. This part is rarely seen on UA-cam.
I'm preparing to tackle my MIL's 2001 S430 which has a leak somewhere... Dealer wants $6K to fix, and the car isn't worth putting that kind of cash into it, so my MIL is ignoring the errors, to my chagrin. As soon as I finish getting the father-in-law's car safely road-worthy, I'll try to trade it for the keys for the S430 so I can take it apart and find the leak(s)...
Sup man. Great video. I changed my valve body and one strut. the right rear one. It works , kinda. All four struts are up but the new one is almost an inch lower. Any ideas why? Thank you
Great instructional video, you have a very analytical and thought driven process. Thank you for the information! My 2 cents...also check and maybe even replace the ride height sensor and the bracket arm connected to the sensor (located behind the wheel on the top wheel well) one on each front and one for both rear wheels.
@@Maknificent12now just diagnosed that problem the other day...waiting on parts then will replace and look for a local place for reprogramming.
Howd everything work out?
While I put my car in the shop because of the airmatic problem and decided to fix the body up . When I took the left fender off I think I seen this so they can be the problem too ? Ima just put on ramps and check for leaks for now .
Nice video brotha 👍👍 very informative .
Glad you liked it! more to come, stay tuned!
Thanks man.. keep making videos..I have a few on s class also
Thanks for watching. I’ll have to take a look
Thank you for that. It’s very helpful. Unfortunately for you a little soapy water to start off with May have saved you some expense. I do understand you didn’t suspect the newest component immediately. I just hope it was still under guarantee.
Thanks for the video. Just got my 2007 cls550. Rear passenger side is low. It raises right up when you turn the car on. Sometimes it drops immediately after shutting the car off, but sometimes it holds air. I got the airmatic codes read and it says something about a lose connection and strut valves. Any ideas? Thank you.
Sitting on coilovers, can I just delete anything to airmatic related and trick the system thinking it’s still there? Or does the air compressor control my locks and trunk also?
Great video!
Thanks!
Replacing the complete airstrut just for a leak on top isn't necessary. Once you have the trut out, use a dremel tool ( small fraize they use for modeling) and get the compound around the upper connecter out, then clean it with thinner and use a good 2 component compound they use for fiber. Fill it up and let it dry well. After a couple of hours you can install the strut to safe time, but let it dry overnight. I did it on both sides and it solved my problem.
Nice video, thanks! And nice location for youd LED light ballast resistor, I just wonder how many Ohms is that resistor (too low Ohms is bad, too high may not help with flickering as I know).
That really help
Awesome!
👊🏿
Very informative👍💥
Glad it was helpful!
Great information. I have a 06 E55 and the F right is slammed on the ground. Also the R rear is down some too. (The right side of the car is leaning, looks funny)I will heed your vid and do the same to my car to (hopefully) fix the problem.
Thx!
Glad it helped champ! Lemme us know how it turns out!
did itwork?
@@ctravis595 i will be starting it tomm/Wed at the latest. Since i replied to the post i found out i need the front lower control arm bushings. Ordered a 12 piece set and will be doing both the L & R sides inclu the R strut. Thanks for asking and i will let you know how i made out.
Thx.
What brand of air compressor did you buy?
Btw: It should never sink critically low - there is a rest-pressure valve on each strut. Great video.
Where is this valve? Thankyou
I believe the valve is on each line am I correct
@@jnjn-u4297 It is a brass piece on top of each strut.
How do you reset the pressure valve
What were the symptoms ? I replaced my pump and I can’t get the pump to even kick on. I never had the red warning but just airmatic needs service. I also replaced fuses and relay and when I put a multimeter on the fuse it has no power going to it. Some saying it’s the leveling sensor and some saying the valve block I’m so lost if anyone in the comments can send me in the right direction that would help. Also it’s only my from that is low the rear is still up.
Hello .. I have a 2004 Mercedes s430 that’s giving me a Airmatic Visit Worship message. My struts are good with no leaks also valve body has been checked also good. How do I check the Reservoir to see if air holds… could you tell me the steps to get it done ?
Hi can you tell me is the air compressor has its own fuse before I replace it I wanna check to make sure it’s not just a bad fuse. Can you tell me where is that fuse located please
Good job.
thnx
Same as mine my right side has dropped how much for the part amd were to order???
when i removed the valves only one made air come out? what would be a reason for that
Nice video, subscriped.
🙏🏿
I changed my valve and didn't prop up my back wheel now it wont reinflate what can i do to inflate the strut. Thanks
Hey buddy thanks for the great tutorial I have a Mercedes S430 one of the right back passenger side of the car is very low The warning sign says airlift too low stop the car, what do you suggest I should do.
replace the strut, unless u you already did, double check the electrical connectors are put correctly
I changed all 4 shocks and the valve block assembly yet I still get the" service your airmatic light" nothing left to change except the 4 sensors and the pump what else could there be? My guess is the sensors.
Hello i own a s500 w220 ive replayced the air pump but the plate that the pump sits on has corroded coukd uou tell me the name of the air pump carrier plate thats the 1 that has to be earthed thanks for your time 👍🏻
awesome video
Thanks!
Yo I changed out on both e500 and s430 Benz aromatic buy in pairs learn to remove old install is easy no worries no problems haven’t watched aromatic video till posting this message . eBay .
Still haven't watched videos or worried bout suspension bout a few other cars actually
My car was leaning front left shock - driver side - I replaced it and it went up but by morning it was down low and by mid day all the way down just on that one stut
What could it be. i check the top of the airline and strut no leaks and sometimes it goes to the highest height help
Is this car somewhat simple to work on? Whats to look out for that cost a lot that probably shouldn't be fixed by an amateur?
Hi. How is that aftermarket valve block is working good,?because I have to change mine .Thanks.
working great man! no issues whatsoever!
Second video I have seen on Mercedes air struts where soapy water would have shown the issue quickly. The other video would have required no parts just shortening one line.
bruddah I have an 03 s500 and both of my airmatic lights are on , basically I have the body raise but no shock one or shock 2 action the auto dampen mode , even if I press it it only goes up but I don't have the sport dampening option , any ideas would be helpful..
thanks in advance
@ElBey Hey champ! Shoot me an email @ maknificent2@gmail.com with more details. Can't promise anything but i'd be happy to see what ideas come to mind
My 2003 s 430 airmatic is on car not losing air just jacked up like a 4 wheel drive what could it be
I know it is an old video but i have a 2004 s430 and the its starting to get low on the front right side but theres no low body message and it still goes up but not all the way
First guess is the position or angle sensor is going out on the front right side. Check out. Check out tinyurl.com/yytcrd2s
I got a w211 airmatic 2007 I've replaced the compressor new relay new rear air bags Both sides new front right air strut when I start the car I can hear the the compressor engaging but sometimes compressor stops and message malfunction comes up..when is not malfunctioning and the car raises the next day the car is down ONLY at right front and right rear Any ideas???
This is a shot in the dark but first guess is the position or angle sensor might be going out on the right side.Again just a guess w/o much info but let us know how it turns out or what happens. Check out what these look like. tinyurl.com/yytcrd2s. depending on your frustration level might be time to do an arnott coils switch. decisions decisions
Mine doesn’t turn on the pump but if I jump the relay it turns on . I’m still hunting the issue .
Hello mate, my 2000 s320 has a noisy air suspension but does go up and down as needed, any ideas on what the noise is? It's only when lifting but doesn't seem to effect the lifting
Screech, whine, or rubbing noise?
@@Maknificent12now hello my friend thank you for replying, it's a very low pitched noise like a compressor but a bit more quiet, that's the best way I can explain it haha, it lifts as it should do and stops when she gets to her ride height but I'm now worried the dreaded suspension problem is going to hit me 4 months into ownership!
@@musyesim2614 how’s it been ?
@@allstarbleeder still a bit noisy like a rumbling noise but going up and down as needed, I'm just concerned it could pack up at any point and leave me stranded
@@musyesim2614 same boat brotha! It’s actually @ the shop as we speak but not for the suspension- cheers

I’ll look for it & post ASAP
Click on description. Link is at the bottom
What was the problem on the scanner
I change kompresor and valve blok...but no 12 volt at the kompresor 🙈🤔
How come my s class 3 side is good but one side go down only 1 finger go in so waht you think too do please for help
When was last time you checked stabilizer link?
My is reading the presser release valve where is it located do you know
sorry what's your question?
Everyone seems to skip the process of redoing the tube . I'm trying to figure out how to add a new fitting to put into the new block, otherwise great video
Whats issue? Old one break or leaky? You pretty much install fitting same way you’d install broken or leaky fitting for a rusty break line for example. Let me know what’s issue with fitting n I might have a suggestion
I wonder that too, i can't get on the little locking ring or what ever its called, on the tube. If you found a solution please answer, i would help a lot😁
You must buy coil spring conversion kit for your car.
And now it is forever.
great suggestion. have you done for yours?
i have 2008 mercedes s550, fuse no31 for suspension compresor no have electric, need help, whot is problem, thanks
To be clear are your tryna to say fuse 31 is inoperative? Or that the fuse is burned out? If so plz let me ask the obvious question of why not just replace ?
Hi my S500 w220 air suspension is not soft itis stiff
My front air shocks are stuck all the way up!! What do you think it might be??
Both fronts? You typically don’t wanna just start throwing parts at a problem without properly diagnosing the issue (expensive way to fix a problem) but w/o being there & just throwing a suggestion out there might look at your strut height position sensors?
Maknificent12 yes it’s both fronts,they won’t deflate,could be from the leak in the rear airline..
I’d be interested to find out what you find out. If it’s stuck I’d put my $ on height sensor? Lemme know
@@romanblloyd1 mine is doing the same! Did you figure it out?
My 2005 s430 just started doing this when I left the shop after replacing my blower motor fuse.I hope it’s the relay.Any suggestion’s? I’m getting that Airmatic visit work shop error too.
Maknificent12 thank you Sir I will do exactly what you suggest.this is big help thanks again
how'd everything work out bud?
Maknificent12 it was the fuse.Thanks for your help and asking.I appreciate you!!!
@DreDay nice! 👏🏿
Looking at a 2004’ Mercedes-Benz s430 matic with 84k miles. - $6,900. One owner in florida, how do you feel about the price ?
Ouch! That’s crazy! Sounds like mechanic is compensating for potential challenges because it’s an older vehicle.
@@Maknificent12now what do you mean lol
@@jDot2414 I mean I don’t know all details but when someone quotes that much I’d love to see bill chart to see exactly what’s costing so much...if it’s a part you can typically get it cheaper somewhere else and find a mechanic who will do same job. Only difference is they may not warranty the work bc they are using your part. Most mechanics look down on using parts they didn’t buy bc if the liability. Bottom line look at billing receipt to find out what’s taking up the bulk of charges and decide from there.
@@Maknificent12now ok got ya! Sorry didn’t understand at first , thanks for the help
My pump come on but the car wont come up, what do you think is the problem
None of struts ride at all?? 🤔
Just happened randomly in one day?
Just a guess but start with easiest fix first by inspecting airmatic fuse relay usually located in fuse box under the hood. Mine was on passenger side near windshield. If you have a diag tool you can (1)test your air canister reservoir to ensure it’s getting air, if good maybe (2) inspect air lines on your valve block to ensure not plugged and (3) while you’re at it check valve block. I ended up needing a new block bc even though lines were clear the block was plugged up
@@Maknificent12now it has been dropping from time to time and come back up, now its down flat and wont come back up
@@ralphwhitaker8761 So when struts drop are you saying they all drop simultaneously? Or do different ones drop. What have attempted so far?
I converted to coils. How do I stop this message
@Mugenk20a btw Some claim they had success just pulling the airmatic fuse but I believe error came back. Some cool over kits come with an override but if yours did not....The for sure way of doing it requires someone with a STAR diagnostic system so you can program it out of the instrument cluster. Here are the steps I found from a forum I frequent
First, turn off airmatic for the car by following these menu items:
Control Units
Body
System Diagnosis
Control Unit Adaptations
Read Coding and Change if necessary
Programming of Vehicle Equipment
Set AIRMatic = NOT FITTED
Press F3 to save the change
Press F5 to send it to the car
Second, disable AIRMatic in the instrument cluster:
Control Units
Information and Communication
IC - Instrument Cluster
Control unit adaptations
Modification year or model year (not sure if this matters or how to know the right value; I guessed based on manufacture date of the car)
Variant Coding
Special Equipment (Wait a few seconds for all of the values to be read)
Set Partial air suspension to NOT PRESENT
F3 to save
F5 to send it to the car
That's it! No pulling fuses required and now you shouldn't see any warning messages.
I got a buddy david that talks like you hes a good mechanic also
@@Maknificent12now mind blown.
@@Maknificent12now lmao hes taking over harbor auto repair in houston

Don't throw parts at a Mercedes, you spent money you didn't have to

glad to hear it!
Buy a Honda. My 3 Mercedes are money pits. Regret buying all of them. All junk!
Yeah gotta either have know how or have disposable $ for mechanics
@@Maknificent12now and that equals shit quality. The last of the great, truly reliable and well built MBs were the late 1980's. It's been down hill since then. The real winners were the mid 90's with their biodegradable wiring harnesses. Jason is right, buy a honda and be done with this german junk!
I changed all 4 shocks and the valve block assembly yet I still get the" service your airmatic light" nothing left to change except the 4 sensors and the pump what else could there be? My guess is the sensors.
You may need to use a bi-directional scanner to reset the error codes?
