Look forward to seeing that.

I've been told by my Dealer that my airmatic pump is on it's way out and I should consider changing it.

I've only just bought the car (S430 2000) and it's the first I've had with airmatic so I don't know what normal operation is.
How long should it take for the car to rise? Mine takes quite a few mins.

Can someone please give me a part number for airmatic pump? I have the same problem with my (S500 2000). When I turn the car on it shows Stop, Airmatic too low. I am not sure if it's my airmatic pump or just relay. Should I take it too stealer to find out what the specific part I need? Thanks!

When the pump is working normally it takes only a few seconds - perhaps five at the most, often less.

Our 2000 S430 Airmatic System failed today. I can place two fingers between the top of my tires and the cage. It is very low.

While doing research I discovered that my extended warranty expired May 31st. No notice was sent or invitation to renew. I had no idea.

How much is this going to cost me?
