The new shock's pistons are not extending fully and are 100mm shorter than the original ones.
Anyone got any experience of this?

Some new suspension units have a reversing spring in them too, the new shock absorbers for the W210 are like that, they seem shorter, but the paper that comes with them mentions that they will extend to the required length when called for.
Call the dealer and ask about it.
