2008 G550 Air Seat Connector
Hey everyone,
I don't normally venture over to this part of MBWorld, but my mom's '08 G550 recently had an issue with the lumbar support airbags in the seats (the things you control with the dials on the side of the driver & passenger seats). You could hear the pump running, but the seats wouldn't inflate.
I looked and noticed an adapter for the hose from the compressor had snapped, so I designed a copy in CAD and printed it - works great but requires an SLA resin printer.
Is this a common problem? I might make a few tweaks and post the .stl file, and I could also print up like 20 or 30 of these and people can pay me for postage and resin and I'll mail them. Just figured if she had the issues, others might as well.
