How do I find out what type of suspension my Mercedes sl320 1998 has as so springy !

I think its in the boot either where the tyre is or some where at the rear behind a panel but im not sure

These ABC systems are EXTREMELY expensive and requires a specially trained tech to work on them. Do yourself a favor and ditch the ABC with a Mercedes CL500 Conversion. No more specially trained techs needed to work on the suspension. Just a good old fashioned suspension any mechanic can work on.

Suspension and steering noises also need to be checked out as soon as possible to be safe. When a suspension component, such as a tie rod end or a ball joint is badly worn, it can separate, sometimes even causing the vehicle to lose control. If you hear a knocking or other noise from the steering or suspension, have it checked out. Here are few examples of the typical suspension and steering noises. Of course, there could be a lot more problems in the suspension and steering that can cause various noises. Any noise should be properly diagnosed.


Mercedes Custom Wheels

firstly disconnect the track rod ends from suspension and turn each suspension unit on its own to check for tightness ,then lower front suspension onto some stands and try again ,if both sides still move freely then you need a new steering rack as the spool valve inside the rack is faulty

what you want is a customizing shop, start by getting some custom car magazines and look for an shop in your city in the ads page

renew the rear springs

what is the question ?

check fuse and relay.to air compressor to air shocks.also height sensor could be bad.

level change up to 20mm in 24 hours is normal.
if after start car returns to normal level you do not have problem yet.

Depends on how you want to spend your money. On multiple car repairs....or the funner things in life. Do a Mercedes E500 Suspension Conversion and do away with those expensive suspension repairs forever! I'd say this falls in the..."looks cool...rides like crap" category.
