Suspension Airmatic not Pumping (Suspension is Implausible)
Hello guys,
My car starting going down early this year. I took it to mercedes and I was told I needed 2 new rear air struts because they are leaking and a new airmatic compressor because the one there is weak from continuous pumping.
I bought the Arnott rear structs and compressor. We installed it in the car. After that I noticed that the car will not pump up or do anything. I always pump the car with STAR. I posted it here a while back and someone told me to check the connector to the compressor and truly one wire was cut. I didn't have time to fix it until recently. I connected the wire back. I checked for faulty code and the only thing I'm getting is 5507 Suspension is Implausible. I noticed that the car drops everytime and doesn't pump up. I have to connect it to STAR to pump it. But the difference from before I found out about the wire that was ripped was that when I park the car on a hill or high ground, it release the air in the struts by itself but when I start driving or move the car to a flat surface, it doesn't pump itself back.
Basically, the car can release the pressure from the struts but is not pumping them back. My car is always low everytime. And I have the error "visit workshop".
Is there anything I'm not doing right? I have done the initial start up again but nothing is working.
Thanks.

Out Of Control!!
Go back to Arnott for a solution, because I believe that the cars system just does not recognize what you have installed, ie suspension is implausible----how could you expect anything else!!!
