2000 E320 4matic Wagon
Power steering vibration

I have a 2000 E320 wagon 4matic which I just replaced the power steering pressure hose in. After bleeding the system about three times I still have what feels and sounds like an air bubble in the system. I put brand new chf 11s in to replace the old fluid, and saw that it seemed to be flowing freely out of the return hose with the filter that screws in with the cap. Is there anything specific to this system I might look for to solve this? Some people mentioned something about an SLS system, can anyone explain to me what that is? Trying to avoid chasing my tail if it’s not an air bubble.

The no engine start procedure is as follows-----keep filling until fluid level stabilizes------then with two people, one in the car the other at fill point the wheel is slowly turned from stop to stop while the outside person is looking for bubbles in tank and filling as level goes down------this typically takes 30 times from stop to stop------if you turned engine on at any point its a do----over
