Warning light


Hi,

Long time viewer with my first issue. This warning light came on tonight on my 2017 GLC43. Attached is the image but it's the air suspension symbol and it says "Malfunction See Operator's Manual." I can't find anything in the manual that says what to do. My question is can I drive on it till I can bring it to the dealership? Thanks.

No idea what that message means... but given that it is not formatted as a warning I would presume it is safe to continue driving.

If the warning is in orange or red you have an immediate concern.

Thanks. Brought to dealership and it came back as a leak in the air suspension. Dealer checked for leaks and found none. They are replacing air compressor and valve "just to be safe."

I've had this same issue with my GLC43 over the past few months. Had the car back to the deal twice now. First time, they replaced a sensor, however, this did not fix the problem. Last time it was in, they kept it for a week to "try" and diagnose the issue. When they gave me it back, they claimed the issue was resolved, however they did not tell me how.

Whilst driving the car today (5 days from getting it back), the warning message appeared again.

Still searching for a fix
