CLS Airmatic Issue - When not If
Well, after 114K miles I finally get the red circle: "Stop car too low". I was only a few miles away from home, drove it back and saw the right front down like a low rider. DAMN.
The compressor and lines are OK, car rises and lowers normally, but the right goes down after a while. To be on the safe side, and not burn the pump out, I ordered the strut from Arnott the same day, should be here around Tuesday-Wednesday.

Strut is replaced, no problems. The strut was shot, every-time any weight was on it, air would whoosh out like popped balloon. Arnott is a lifesaver, $400 for the strut including the core charge back, not to mention the 10% coupon Arnott gives MBWorld members. Indy charged $195 in labor to install, done.

The dealer? It would have been well over $1,000 to replace.
