I emailed the seller...just waiting for a reply.

RRS Supercharged and CLS550 (W218)
Ok...I didn't realize the instructions were in the bottom of the description part of the sales page. I played with it a little and the unit works as advertised. VR gave a great description of how the unit works so I won't repeat what was already said. Well worth the money.

How about a pic or two?!

I'm tempted on trying on my 2014 W212 Wagon...
Any of you guys can give me a bit of feedback about the loss of ride quality when lowering the car?
My idea is just to lower a little bit (1 finger +-).
thanks in advance

Are you just planning to lower the back, I was under the impression only the rears had adjustable air suspension

Mine come with the Airmatic on all corners, so with this module I should lower front and rear as desired. (hopefully :-))

I don’t think lowering affects the ride quality that much. At least I didn’t notice anything that stood out from lowering 20mm. The change to 20” wheels and slightly lower profile tires was a bit noticeable in that every man hole cover and bump can be felt a bit more clearly although even that was a subtle change. I actually use comfort mode now more since the fender gaps no longer look hideous at the slightly higher ride height. I’m sure it will depend on how much you lower it. The great thing about this module is that it’s easily adjustable.

The idea is really just to decrease the fender gaps (probably further 10mm from the sport mode). Where I live (Germany ) I'm lucky to have very good roads...but I wouldn't like to loose all of the comfort of the airmatic :-)

Finally got around to trying it out today!
It works exactly as advertised.
First I had the car in position 1 and got this weird message. Make sure your ignition is on for it
I didn't play with the manual mode I only put it on the "Low" setting and it's low enough for me honestly
Front lowered
Rear lowered
As soon as I changed the settings and started the engine I put my hand on the tire and could feel it lowering and it's pretty fast.
Very satisfied with this device! To anyone thinking twice about it; Don't!

Lol you did the same thing as me. I didn't have the car and bought a bunch of parts for it before even making a purchase. I knew I was going to get a CLS and didn't care

Ya. I bought the car a couple weeks ago but waiting for it to be shipped here ... Meanwhile parts are arriving... Lol
