What are the weak points of the 2001-S430?
Hi friends. I will like to get your experience with the 2001-S430 model. I've heard the Airmatic system can go wrong, also the instrument cluster. Any other specific area that I should be aware in this model? Thank you all for reading.

Nothing out of the ordinary. Shifters stuck in park, front thrust arm bushings crack, 722.6 trans electrical plugs leak, and tons of radio complaints. Airmatic problems seem to be the air pump dies and the car sits down at the end of the travel. Some of the front struts will leak on top at the air line.

 Yup, that is not out of the ordinary at all!
