one question is driving me crazy !!
so one day after 16 hrs of work i go outside i see the rear passenger side is low so that means the strut is leaking air !! right?
so i turned on the car and yeah it went back up and no problem
i decided to leave it for 24 hrs outside on my drive way just to make sure and that side didnt go low... NOTHING !! it wasnt leaking again i left it for 3 days without touching the car or even unlocking the car and still its not going down as a matter of fact sometimes that strut (rear passenger side) goes higher than the rest of the struts
pleasssseeeee can someone explain whats happening and if i need a new strut ?

Mercedes
were you parked on an incline surface at work>?
There have been many reports the car will attempt to level itself when parked on incline. Obviously this will not repeat when parked on a different surface grade
