Suspension Problems

I currently have a 2019 C63S sedan lowered on H&R springs, Level sensor is causing a bad sway + seems like my height all around doesn't sit the same, any recommendations to fix this! I was told something along curb height?

Pulled C156784 - The left front vehicle level is outside the tolerance. There is a signal below the permissible limit value!

Thinking out loud here. There are some folks that have lowered these cars with the same springs. Don't think I've seen level sensor issues. Sounds like you may have a blown/leaking damper. These dampers can start leaking. Have you inspected them for leaks? The issue with lowering springs is that you operate the dampers outside of their intended range, so increased wear is to be expected at a minimum.

I have the H&r (height adjustable) springs and I'm sitting very low. No issues, no codes. Check your level sensor and that it's plugged in and such.

I have a 2019 sedan with the same springs in for 3 years now, no issues. However, one of my issues was due to me installing one of the level sensor 180 deg incorrectly on the rear new lower camber control arm. It through code for that but I soon corrected it and had to recalibrate the level heights, was a pain in the a..,

How did you recalibrate the level height?, came to find out my springs are sitting on the rubber isolator, being taken off and fixed today!

Go get an Autel maxipro off amazon. It’s up to you to want to return it lol. I return two so far and now I’m keeping the maxipro.

I can show you how to do height calibration. You will need one to do this or the car will not run right. My car starting to slide and bounce during acceleration, was kind of dangerous.
