Suspension Low
2005 E320 CDI Canadian version
Hi, hoping someone might be able to help.
Have been out of town for 3 weeks, just got back and thought I would take the beast out for a drive, noticed that the front right side suspension is sitting very low, the left front is a bit higher, but not much. Both sides in the rear seem to be OK.
I don't believe my car has the ADS system. I carefully took it out for a drive, but it still sits low and suspension is rock hard when going over bumps. When turning I can feel a bit of rubbing on the fender from RH front.
Anyone have any ideas.
If it helps here is my vin

Thanks, don't have airmatic, are you talking coil spring or shock?
Looked at Bilstein website for new shocks, the B6 performance series, apparently on sale here in Canada.

do the bcracing coilovers. That's what i did. Amazing set up. Www.bcracingcoilovers.com $1000 for everything you need. And you will have adjustable coilovers and 32way adjustable dampening adjustment is nice aswell.

My opinion would be a broken coil spring. Since you are in Canada I assume they use a good bit of salt on the roads during the winter. Our Mercedes are known for broken springs.
