Mercedes E500 Sat for a month now sits low..
I have an 03 MB E500 with approx 77K on it. It sat for a month and the battery went dead. I charged the battery and it now starts up, however. The front right is sitting low (suspension dropped). No "warning vehicle too low" messages come on the dash and the button to raise the suspension lights up but doesn't seem to do anything. I am hoping someone may have some input as the car was fine before it sat for the month while I was traveling. Thanks!!

this has happened to my e500 after vacations, just start it up and let it idle for a bit, perhaps give it some gas... i have a feeling the bags leak slowly, they just need to refill

It probably leaked down, then did some damage to the right strut now it won't hold pressure.
My guess anyway.
