w220 S55 AMG 2004
Lightbulb i finally lowered my S55 ABC suspension and stayed down !

as mentioned above , ( IT STAYED DOWN !!!) if you know what this means then you properly been there and lowered your ABC suspension a few times already just to come back in the morning or after a drive to find out that it came back to the way it was before !!
so here is what i have done and the settings i have interred..
for W220 , the factory inclination angles (as per as DAS ) should be as follows :
- front between 4.8 and 5.5
- back between -1.9 and -1.4
so every time i did this i used 5.5 front and -1.9 back which helped in lowering the back but the front always came back to uo which made me end up with a strange looking suspension !
so what i did this time is as follows:
1- move toward calibrated level ( automatic)
2- calibration of the plunger travel sensors
3- actuation of level values ( here you lower your car as per as your preference
but INPORTANT NOTE: from my experience, the DAS lowering method will not allow the ABC suspension to be electronically lowered below 3.5 cm between the upper part of the tiers and the finder
4- entry of values stored in the inclination measuring instrument
- left front 5.0
- right front 5.0
- left rear -1.4
- right rear -1.4
and click F3 or OK ( i cant remember )

after that you should have l( level calibration successful)
5- load adjustment ( u should have a successful load adjustment )
and you are done






good luck
