w211 e500 Japanese specs, Multiple issues help required in the UAE

Hello Everyone,

this is probably an old topic for most of the members here but I would like to get some help please,

in 2020 I have purchased a W211 Japanese Specs E500 2004 / not the 4matic, with the below adjustments:
- installed the AMG Comodra 2 pc rims when I purchased the vehicle
- AMG body kit
- no modifications to the engine
- Installed android Headunit
- I have kept the Airmatic suspension with no modifications, however I have purchased almost every other part since I have

I am facing couple of issues as I can't find anyone who has the right experience and knowledge to work on this vehicle in the UAE and I would like to know if someone can help with the below:
- Wear and tear of the rear wheels from the inner siders specially the rear right wheel.. I have read in one of the threads here that this might be a calibration issue if the vehicle is equipped with an Airmatic system
- the vehicle seems very heavy when moving from stationary
- I have transmission slips sometimes and click sounds from transmission (can be heard from outside the vehicle) and there is down the transmission cover/ not sure if this is related to the seal between engine and transmission
- I have a check engine light with one mechanic saying that this is a speed sensor however no ABS light accompanying it
- Front right side suspension goes to sleep when I lock the vehicle only, whenever I unlock it goes back to normal.. this is after I have sent the vehicle for undercarriage wash (not sure if this is related)

Do you advice me to buy an Xentry Passthrou or any other alternative that might fix the below issues?

Appreciate any help that this might post might provide.

Thanks
