2004 MERCEDES E55 AMG REAR AIRMATIC STRUT REPLACEMENT IS IT AS BAD AS YOU THINK ?

[@thurmanmerman9099]

damn.. that Arnott suspension is so expensive

[@EricReyes-o3s]

were both of your airbags out ?

[@TucoSalamanca-p6u]

Hey mate, on what point did you place the jack to jack up the rear?

[@EricReyes-o3s]

pretty sure bro used the diff, if he did ( which ima probably do) put a rag or a piece of clothing between jack and the diff itself

[@TucoSalamanca-p6u]

@@EricReyes-o3s yeah not sure about that man...but if you're going to do it put a piece of wood...don't want to damage the heat fins

[@CarsIn4K]

Nice ! You have the tool to calibrate the levels ?

[@youngtimersgarage]

Unfortunately I do not

[@bjornipasha2603]

Can you make a video guiding the air suspension buttons, like showing what each of them does?

[@youngtimersgarage]

When all lights are red mean the large button pressed the suspension is at its lowest and sportiest setting sport plus. 1 light on is sport so less stiff. And the one button on the left raises the car and it is only good for up to 70mp and the car lowers its self after 70mph. No red lights is your standard ride heigjt

Nice collection i love my w140

Better to keep the car level on a jack before you inflate the bags, I wouldn't recommend dropping the car like that with no air!

[@youngtimersgarage]

Never heard that, Im assuming if the bags arent seated properly that can be an issue otherwise I dont see a problem?

[@EricReyes-o3s]

so do you inflate the bags while jacked up in the air before dropping it ? im gonna do this job for both sides as well and js wanna get as much input from others as i possibly can

[@1n2333]

​@@EricReyes-o3s I keep the car on a jack but let it down to ride height while inflating the bags. It's not exactly necessary just an extra precaution I take and it puts less stress on the air compressor
