2008 GL320 Rear Air Shocks Replaced
Hello everyone I replaced my rear air spring shocks on my GL320 now the front looses air after a few minute when i lock the vehicle. When I start it up it rises and when I drive it has a bumpy ride.
No error indicators come on telling me there is a problem. should i replace the front air springs or is this normal for 2008 GL? i didn't see this happen before I replaced the rear.
by the way, when I use the raise vehicle button none of the air springs go down when it's in park turned off ( go figure ) I only have the problem when the vehicle is in normal driving height. Any suggestions are welcome

Thank you for that info, by the way, who did you purchase your front shocks from and was it difficult to install? Should use one of the companies on Ebay that sells set of two rebuilt for under $1000? or should I go to Mercedes. Lastly how can I tell if my front has ADS or w/o ADS ?
Thanks again?
Thanks again?
