car is leaning!!!

Hey guys i have an 01 s600, and in the mornings my whole car is leaning towards the drivers side. both front and rear dip, should i change my abc fluid first since both sides are leaning, i dont see any type of fluid around my car ever , or just take it in to stealership and see what they say.

thanks

have you adjusted your suspension height repeatedly lately? I have that same problem because of my links and adjusting them so often that the height readings changed in the ECU and had to be redone through STAR

I attached a diagram I found in ALLDATAdiy.com showing your entire leveling system for your S600. You may have a leaking seal or ring somewhere causing your driver sdie to fall. You may need to, as previously said, relearn the limits of your Mercedes' suspension on a star machine. ALLDATAdiy.com also has a Tech service bulletin indicating that the problem could be cause by the hydraulic fluid filter under the hood. Might save you some $$$ if you take a look.
