Getting Error Stop Car, Car is to low

I got this error last night on the way home from the Heat Game. I noticed that the front right wheel well looks very very low, like a low rider. I called Mercedes Roadside and they told me this sounds like a leak in the air suspension. I need to bring it into the dealer but what I am nervous about, is I have a lowering module installed. Has anyone else had this problem? If so what should I do? SHould I have the lowering module removed prior to bringing car in? I am not sure if the new Carlson Module is detectable.

If you can, get the module removed just to make sure. If you were out in Los Angeles I would hook you up with my service manager who tends to look the other way.

Have you talked to Carlson? Or the person who installed it?

If you put the module in yourself I guess you are SOL.

Carlson USA installed the Module. I will call them on Monday since this just happened last night.

HI!

I had the same error message 3 weeks ago. On my car, both front wheels were down at the same time. I do not have any mods on my car. I had the car towed to my dealer and they returned it to me the next day. All they did was reset the suspension computer and I have had no more problems since.

If you leave it in, you are likely to denied warranty coverage. It's just too easy for them to blame on the lowering module causing the problem. Take it off if you can.

I would say take it out just to avoid any arguments at the dealership.
