Hi guys,
I have a 2000 s430 and there seem to be some problems with the back suspension on both sides. This is what happens: the back sits very low all the time(the front is ok) except when i press the switch on the dash.When I press the switch on the upper side, the led turns red and I get the message vehicle raising. The compressor kicks in, the car raises, backside is almost ok. Now, I understood that this switch should be used only for a couple of minutes, and then turned off, not supposed to be used while driving. When I switch off by pressing it on the lower side, the led turns off, and the car lowers. It's not supposed to stay raised after I switch off? I don't get any message that there is something wrong with the airmatic.
Am I doing something wrong? Is the suspension gone?
