Im getting an intermittent "visit workshop" with a car outline and an up arrow.

The pump and lines are new, no leaks etc.... but sensors are 13 years old. Figure i would just start with them and go from there.

Only issue is 0105427617 doesn't show up when searching w211 forum here.

My rear sensor says 0105427617, but when i search parts house for that, it says that is a "headlamp level sensor" ??? Ive found some say the 0105427717 might be the right part, but just want to make sure


Also seems like there are ones advertised as "OEM" and "OEM supplier" all made in china for $19-$60... and "genuine" ones for $150-$200

Thoughts?

EDIT: So i think I figured out they are one in the same... If i was Mercedes i would have labeled it "airmatic or suspension level sensor" Still looking for input on the china vs dealers ones

Most likely a carryover of the original name; on the W210, that sensor on the rear anti-sway bar was used to adjust the headlight level based upon the height of the rear of the car. It performs the same function on the W211 and is also used to compute ride height.
