It's a joke about the ABC system. The car drops itself over several days if you don't start the engine. So if you leave it in your driveway, then after a week it will look like you got it lowered. Until you start it, that is.

How many Miles on your 2000 CL??? Drive 200.000 Miles and you don't have to wait a few days to see it drop. A few minutes will do...Even with a new pump, flushing and the
``Rodeo`` ride...
