Both rear bags gone simultaneously?
Guys, I was driving in Sport 2, I hit the lifting button because of road conditions (didn't see it was in Sport 2)and the car slammed down in the back! Any ideas? Reset? Air line?

Even if you blew the air line that feeds the rear air springs, that doesn't explain why both sides dropped simultaneously. If the air line blew, both air springs should have maintained their pressure for days.
Could possibly be the rear level sensor is broken or malfunctioning. It's mounted to the rear sway bar on the centerline of the car.

If an air spring is collapsing, there is a leak in the bladder or the level valve is not sealing. I'm happy to share the technical info on this so one can see for oneself. PM me if interested.

yeah...i'd also advise having your car checked by one of those specialized Mercedes diagnostic tools. they actually can check and output the exact fault in almost all cases where generic scanners cannot.
