Hi,

I have a 2002 E500 the front right suspension is not rising. Rest all suspensions are ok. The compressor seems to be working. The light "car too low" came while driving. Any suggestions.

You sure its an 02?

You may have a leak time to replace the air suspension on that side

Yup it's an 02... When I imported the car it had a similar problem. Opened the shock and checked a valve was loose. Worked fine after that. But it's the 3rd time it's given the same problem.

May be time for a pair of Arnotts.

Went to the dealer the shock is leaking... Is it advisable to change the air suspensions to normal or?

Arnott air socks have a lifetime warranty and cost less than dealer. https://www.arnottindustries.com/sea...el=58&year=127 It is best to replace in pairs.

I had the EXACT same issue on the right side and replaced both fronts with Arnotts last weekend. The first one took me 2 hours and the 2nd took an hour.
The installation is simple if you are doing it yourself.

Also I ordered mine thru partsgeek and saved a good sum. both fronts for $700.With a core charge of $450 for both. I just sent them in for the core yesterday.

Now as for the ride- definite difference in tightness. The arnotts are stiffer and just a well built strut. Here's a few pics of them installed. Notice the solid rubber construction compared to the low quality OEM strut.

AND yes they have a lifetime warranty as well. GET THEM NOW!
