White SMOKE
I originally posted this video showing that my car still leans to the left after sitting a couple of days, but the other interesting thing is the white smoke that appears after the car has been running for several seconds.

Any thoughts?

Sounds sexy as hell, but I don't understand why it does that upon raising, nice upgrade to the 07 tail lights, I just ordered the 07 amg tail lights.

I'd say you have a leaky hydraulic fluid line that's part of your ABC. You probably should get it in the shop ASAP.

Sorry.

Did you get that looked at yet? I'm curious as to why your car was doing that.

I too am interested. That was really odd that the smoke came out like that.

What happened? I know you got it fixed.
