My airmatic visit workshoplight is on and I took it and got a rodeo done car lift normal when turn on and lowers properly when turned off but I got the airmatic system code check and it says front right strut moves eventhough locking valve is closed can that be fixed without replacing strut? I think it was a default. code..1531. You can reply back to me at..midwestdiva69@hotmail.com

You don't have an airmatic system on your car. Your car has the ABC system that uses hydraulic fluid.

I have A 2001 cl 600, GREAT CAR but when the ABC goes it really goes. It has been in the shop at least 6 months out of the last two years figuring out the ABC issues. Pump was replaced, lines replaced and shock replaced. It still slowly goes down on the right rear after a couple of days but will come back up when started. I guess the valve block is the only thing I didn't have replaced. Doe's that sound about right?

This is an old thread he might not have the pump
The cheapest pumps in the USA are at rockauto.com about $250. see if they wil ship to you or find a buddy in the USA to get the package and mail it to you if they won't ship internationally

I would suggest not getting the cheapest part you can find. I would recommend trying to get the OEM replacement. Since the car was manufactured, the replacement parts are more robust. Is the Rockauto part an OEM piece or China/Reman unit?

I believe the pump shown by rockauto is a power steering pump for about $250.00, not a tandem pump. I cannot find an ABC pump listed by them.

Be careful, there is a power steering pump only option.
The pumps in the $200+ range on RockAuto are the tandem pumps. The pumps in the $100 range are non tandem power steering only.

Too early to throw money at it, drive on a bumpy road, raise and lower the car a lot of times, get it working, load it up with something heavy and do it again and again, Then check for leaks on the ground.
Check youtube for the abuse these can take, don't *****foot - if it's a blockage or a dud 3 micron filter in the abc oil tank who knows ?. Go max height and park over night all this helps. Frank.
