SL55 ABC Malfunction
On Friday my 2003 SL55 (1200 mi) was picked up by a flatbed and I supervised the loading myself. It was taken to CEC in Los Angeles for 9x20f and 11x20r Lorinser LM6. I was told I could pick up the car Saturday at 1:00. I arrived Saturday at 1:30 to we have a problem......
I looked at the car and 3 corners of the car were raised in the air and the right front was dropped all the way down. The display read ABC STOP! car to low. They told me they have never seen this before and that they would have to call mercedes to come pick it up. What gives........ anybody experience this? Did they do something that they are not telling me?

Lorinser rims
Make sure they align and balance for those rims. A special part for mine was ordered. My tire blew out because the inside edge was worn thru. The dealer and 2 other car experts missed seeing any wear. The dealer said an alignment must be also done to height as well as distronic. A hefty $900 was the charge and paid by my insurance company.
I got it back today.....
