Nothing MB related (sorry)
Steve (MBenzNL) will be going there in spring again... He could do the lowering for you.

You can ask your dealer to run your VIN number in their EPC if you can't find the info in / on your car yourself...

I remember calling Axle about a year ago(I don't think he's there anymore) and he advised they can only use a tuner's aftermarket lowering module. For liability reasons, they aren't willing to use Star Diagnosis.

Seems to me there is less stress and waiting if you use a lowering module.

perhaps, but id rather not spend $2k on a part that I will have to remove once I sell the car. Plus Im not looking for a huge drop.

True that! The module has adjustable height, just not price.
