HELP...Bags wont inflate after cold

Hey guys

So my 03 E500 stays parked for long periods. Usually the bags deflate a little but then inflate once started. It has been sitting for a month or so and we had a snowfall and real cold weather. The battery was almost dead when started it and got the visit workshop. A short drive fixed that but the bags never inflated and still dont. Now it just shows the visit workshop for air suspension.

Is there anything I can do like maybe reset the ecu or something? It used to always inflate after starting and Im thinking maybe the code is in the system so it doesnt even try to inflate anymore.

Thanks for any help!

UPDATE: For anyone experiencing this probelm....I was going to get the car scanned this week as last week I worked long hours so couldnt make it in to mechanic for scanning. I tried taking the battery off for 24hrs just to see. Didnt do anything but kept driving the car anyway (all the way low but carefully). Friday night I drove over to the gfs house and sure enough I get out and the car is regualr height.

So anyone that is having this issue maybe wait before you drop thousands of dollars at a mechanic or mercedes. Mine went away after about 5 or 6 drives. And now the car is fine again.....for free!
