This applies to the 123 not the 124

There is a (small, expensive) repair kit for the self-leveling valve assembly, (MB part # 000-586-00-32, about $100CAD from the dealer), which includes a new valve piston, springs, ball bearings, o-rings and copper sealing rings. Give your VIN when ordering the kit, as there are different versions of the valve even within the W123 series.

There is no rebuild kit for the 124 valve. As you can see from the picture you would need a special wrench just to open it.
