I just bought a flood 2008 s550. the suspension is down "malfunction" abs light is on, front right/left airbags fail, the seats won't slide and also the doors still open after locking. It seems that i made a mistake buying this car. but want to try fix before deciding to take it back to auction. Help

Purchase a Star diagnosis tool before you make any decisions to sell it (or to start fixing it). Or perhaps you can find someone near by that could help you with the tool.

Welcome to the forum.

PS. would be better to post this at the W221 forum.
