2005 E55 AMG
Car leaning issue

Hey folks,

I have a 2005 E55, and was wondering if anyone has any experience with the issue I'm having.

So interesting issue.... My driver's side is sitting low, front and rear. Passenger side sits fine. Have pretty new Arnotts on all 4 corners, and it's sitting at the same height... Not slammed to the ground or getting lower overnight or anything.

The codes im getting are

5151 - Rear Axle Level Sensor - Signal Implausible
5500 - Critical vehicle level at front axle

So I would think ok rear level sensor needs to be replaced... But anyone have any idea if that has anything to do with the front? Rear right is sitting fine, rear left is low.

If anyone has had this issue or seen this issue any insight would be appreciated before I start going replacing parts.

I attached photos of the rear I guess it's not as easy to tell in photos... But it's very obvious in person.

First thing that comes to mind is there is something wrong at the driver's front, and that's causing the rear to be a bit off. Post a pic of the driver's front. It should be slammed by the sound of it.

I'm grab a photo in a bit, but it's definitely not slammed. It's the exact same height as the rear.

Front sensor physical looks good, it's clean and plugged in right. I unplugged it to check. Linkage is good too. Might be a bad sensor but it's not throwing a code.

I think that your rear level sensor needs to be replaced. Then you need to have the airmatic suspension recalibrated via Star diagnostics.
