As for the tire pressures, I have been running 38 when the tires are cold, they dropped to 36 with the cooler weather, as the picture shows, and I've been meaning to inflate them up again. They usual get to around 40 or so psi when they are nicely warmed up and I've had no issues. When I first picked up the wagon the tires were 41/42 cold and to me it was too much. I take the same streets usually so I know where the potholes, etc are and avoid them as best I can, so far so good on that front.

I would have them replace the SAM module like they did on my car. Apparently when they did the emissions updates at the VPC if it wasnt done 100% correctly the car can start throwing errors and codes left and right.
Im running about 36 psi front and 33 psi rear cold. Got the best ride that way

Just a call from my SA, the ABC module is going to be replaced (SAM module perhaps?), dealer placed order for a new one, as it appears to be a software issue with it. Supposedly a special case was opened on it, since it's the first they have seen with this. MB told the dealer to hold the vehicle until the module is replaced, hopefully Monday I'll get the car back. I'll follow up once this issue is resolved.

To update this thread I started. Took almost 3 weeks, but I got my car back this evening. The air body control (ABC) unit was found to have a fault code of C220C01 per my repair invoice, which pointed to a replacement of the ABC unit. They had to order one from Germany and program it and finally the car was fixed & back to normal. I hope no one else has this issue, since getting parts for these cars takes a long time. Of course, MBrace went nutty on the techs ride of my car & gave a message of "MB connect has limited service" and they had to recode that control unit as well.

Wow, I don't understand why they don't have more parts available, they have been making these cars in europe for a while. I've been waiting over a month for a simple Key that the dealer lost. They claimed there was none available in the USA or even Germany. God help anyone if they lost both keys, the car would be parked a long time. Mercedes needs to really step up and start having the dealers stock more parts for these cars like most car manufactures do. Sorry you had to wait so long to get this squared away, your problem was a lot more serious than my lost key issue.

My car is having the same malfunction at only 1300KMs. Build date was 04/18. Car is stock.
When the car is parked and off it sounds like the air suspension in the back is still making quite a loud noise - like it's trying to adjust.
Not sure what the problem is exactly but I'm going to bring it into the dealership soon.
