AIRMATIC LOWERING VIA STAR in NJ

Looking to have my 04 E500 lowered. Does anyone know any mb techs or indys that will lower it via star (sds) in New Jersey?

Thanks!

What are you trying to tell us----you system does work, but you don't know how to use it or the system doesn't work and you need diagnostic time to determine what is wrong with the system??

Check you local yellow pages for MB repair and start calling, but be very specific---------------"Do you have DAS Xentry diagnostic system"----if there is a lull in the conversation---hang up and try again!!

Hi Chris,
I don't know if this answer would help. I will be receiving my DAS in a day or two. I will need a few days to get my feet wet with this, but based on what I read HERE it is not that difficult to do. If you are brave enough, you can bring some beer and we can get it done
Where in NJ are you located?

How about RootBeer then?
I am not far from you GSPW exit 140 (to meke it sound like a true Jersey address. If you can't find anyone closer I'll be glad to help you out. Was this your parent's car that has been passed on to you?

Hahhaha that' just reminded me of something hilarious: I'm 18 and all of my car club and car meet friends are 28+, so when we were organizing a local MBWorld forum meet, one of the guys accidentally texted me "going to have some beer with your mom" when he meant to send it to his son. Needless to say I was angry at first and he laughed for quite a good while. You're lucky someone like 65aircooled lives in your area man, I can't find ANYONE to do lowering via STAR.

You need to come over to California man! There are tons of people here willing to help, including myself. Much better weather too!

Good luck to OP!

I really do, and if I have some time/funds this summer I'll definitely make it out there. Please post some pics once it's done Chris!!

Thanks everyone'! I'll definitely post some pics when I finally find a shop that'll do it. Some places around me say they can do it but have only done it like once before so I'm not reallly too comfortable having my car be a test lol. I just wish that I could just take it to the dealer and have a tech just do it and do it right the first time.

That's the main issue I've run into: dealerships won't do it for liability reasons not even as a cash transaction. It's against most of their policies and it's hard to find someone both experienced and willing in certain places.
