air suspension problem
i just bought a 2001 S500 runs and drives great but when shut off L/R sags bad when the car is started and you push the button that raises the car it pumps up even if you shut the light on the switch off it still rides fine no warnings when you park it lowers back down on the L/R only any advise.

less likely but also possible you have a leak in the air line to that strut , or your valve body has a internal leak to that strut

Carlos,
I would suggest that you try what is wrong first, as there are several possible causes for your problem. Some of these include:
Blown or faulty fuse.
Air leak in the system.
Worn compressor seal.
Fault in the Airmatic valve block.
The more you learn about the Airmatic System, the easier it is to fix. You might start here:
