ADS Indicator
Hello All..
So apparently I have to replace my air springs due to a leak. I was wondering how can i tell if I have ADS or not? I have a 13' GL450. Is it the sport comfort button that is standard on the 550 or is there another interior or exterior indicator i should be looking for. Purchased used so i am unsure. Thanks in advance.

I believe the ADS (active damping) includes those additional buttons on the console by the arm rest. If yours look like this, then you have ADS.

Else, if it is just 2 buttons (on the right most side), then you don't have it and just the standard airmatic suspension.
