Vacuum clairification CL600
The left door on the CL will not close with the close asstist, I just got word from MB that the vacuum line that goes to the door actuator has a leak. They say the line from the pump to the door has a leak, not in the door. I am just wondering why this has happened since they worked on the car last week changing the airbag, seams a little suspect to me.
My question is this, is there one line that goes to the door or are there individual lines to opperate the closer, door locking, and whatever else?

The other parts of the vacuum system are here:

It's unlikely work on the airbag would have anything to do with it.
There could be more involved when they open it up. I had a bad door latch take out a check valve and a hose, which then burned out the vacuum pump. Luckily it was all on warranty. I'd hurry to get it fixed before the gremlins multiply.

Thanks for the reply, I have the car in the shop now trying to find where the leak is. I have GMPP warranty but they say they do not cover the vacuum hoses, I will deal with them in the AM. Other then that they say the cost could go up to $900.00.....ouch!

I got my car back on Tuesday, they found a "nick" or something in the door's vacuum system. Since they did not charge me I am assuming they did the damage last week when they changed the airbag.
I commend Fletcher Jones of Las Vegas for stepping up and doing the right thing, this repair could have cost me bug bucks, my extended warranty does not cover vacuum lines!
