E500 Air Ride Problem
Hi all, im new to this forum. I recently had my front driver side air strut & compressor replaced. Ever since then my car has been stuck high off the ground & i cant get it to return to regular ride height. Has anyone else had this problem?

I have no clue where they’re located at. I’ve looked for the location on google but i can find the rear ones. I did believe that might be the problem but I didnt want to waste money on the wrong issue. Lol i just bought 2 new compressors when my original one was working fine.
*Update: I just unplugged the driver side sensor & the warning went away im going to go grab 1 from the junkyard today & see if that will bring it back down.

Have you had the car scanned with Star? You can't always check codes for this kind of stuff with an OBDII scanner, which is what most indy shops have. If it's throwing a warning message they should be able to see what the issue is. Without doing that it's a guessing game and you'll just be throwing money at parts.
