Hydraulic Suspension Right Front sits high - is that normal?

Hello Members,

I have a 2002 CL500.
My right front fender sits almost 4 inches from the tire ( 245/45/18). Is that normal height?

The SHOCK or if I push down on it (range) is working. But it just sits high.
The left side has a bad shock and sits low. When car runs it comes up, but not as high as the right front fender.

Any suggestions would be great. Thanks in advance!

Nope, if you can afford it, have someone who knows the MB suspension look at the car

Plutoe,

Do you know if you bleed the Hydraulic fluid from the shock,will the car go down?
Do you think the shocks are in a locked state?

Thank You

Hard to say as we do nothing by using the FUYAA to diagnostics------we scan all cars for faults first--then suggest a repair solution---the scan is 75 bucks--no scan =no work!
