How's Cardone's air suspension
I drive a W222 - 2014 S63 AMG. OEM suspension from Benz is about $2.5kusd in my country. Arnott is about 1kusd. Wanted to use Arnott but have been hearing a lot of reviews talking about it making noises after a while. This is a problem because the exact reason why I want to change my air suspension is because of noises from a rebuilt suspension.
Cardone's on the other hand is 1/2 of the price of Arnott's and 1/6 of price of OEM due to clearance. I feel like this would be a better choice. How's everyone's reviews or experience with the air suspension?

The only thing is, no shops around me can confirm whether it's the suspension or not. I had two shops say they THINK it's the suspension, but they're not sure. I don't wanna drop $3k on something that is completely fine. IF Cardone suspension solves the noise problem, i'll use it until it breaks and just get a new OEM from Benz.

I might be wrong, but I think some of the aftermarket suspensions won't work with the raising and lowering functions or wont plug in.
Cardone is bottom of the barrel in my opinion. You get a Cardone if you cannot get anything else. You might be replacing the parts again soon.

I ended up buying shocks from China to test out whether the sound is from the shock or not. I'll report back about shocks from China. They have 4.9/5.0 rating .
