Help on my ABC
I was getting a Visit workshop warning message every once and a while on my 2003 CL55. I took it into the shop and they changed a the aluminum block with the large accumulator on it. It was fine for about a week, now I get the Red Drive carefully warning light that comes on constantly. The ride height is high without any sags or leakage, I don't see any leaks on the ground. But it will not adjust when you select different ride heights. Can this be a calibration issue, the shops say I may need a pump. I was looking for a second opinion.

Yea you are most likely looking @ a new ABC pump replacement. I believe it is a TSB on our 2003's so bring it the dealership they are required to change the part at no charge to you. While your at it, I know there is a TSB on certian hoses off the ABC prone to cracking and leaking so have those replaced too! All to often people stray from the dealership in search of better prices and end up missing out on TSB parts the dealership has to give you as long as you mention it! Knowledge is power! Good luck. If your car starts to lean to one side or adjust on its own, check the valve block sensors!

The ABC hoses were replaced as a recall, and my car is dealer maintained always, so all recalls are done eventually.
