S124 - Power Steering Flush - Self Leveling Suspension
Hello everyone. I'm just after purchasing new ps fluid and a filter since I noticed mine hasn't been changed in a long long while.
My S124 has the 2.2 Petrol engine with self leveling rear suspension (111.960)
I've done a flush before on a different car which was very straight forward however I'm slightly confused on this one
I have a canister with a dipstick on the right hand side of the engine bay. That is where I should pour the ps liquid in. From that, there is a rubber hose going up-hill towards the reservoir.
What is the best way of flushing the whole system? Do I drain all the fluid from both canisters and then pour new in and steer lock to lock or what? Thanks
Sorry about the crappy picture but I hope you can see what I'm talking about
I dont know about your car , because your self leveling system is in with the steering . May be worth going on to youtube, and see if its been done on there. Put it in youtube search box ..
Goliath just to help would you go to Google search. Put in the search box ---- Wagon Self Leveling Power Steering hydraulic fluid flush i did find it interesting read the web site is -- BenzWorld.org. May not be the same as yours but you can check it out on Google you will find lots of information on there.
Please let us know . Did you find out about your car .
Yes, sorry about no reply. I found the return lines for both the sls and the power steering and I will be doing a flush on both on Monday so I'll definitely report back
