airmatic says raising but nothing happens
hey, my 04 e55 had an airline blow out and has been sitting on the floor for a few months on all 4 corners with batteries disconected. i fixed the line and started the car up. the back raised up but not the front. no hissing or air leak sounds can be heard. i hit the raise button and it says car raisin but noting happens. does something need to be reset? i read in the service manual about refilling the resivoir with STAR, is this true?

Do you hear the pump?
You could have failed struts, failed pump.

comp works, it just wont go up. when i took off the air line, the compres was pushing air through the line just fine. its like the valve in the strut isnt opening. i just have a hard time thinking both the struts went bad.
