How do you know you need accumulatiors?
Justin,
How did you know you needed accumulators and valves? What is the diagnosis procedure? I'm not sure if my rough ride is cause by my 18" wheels and Bridgestone SO-3 or the suspension.

postscript 1/9/2006: Got my car back from the shop today where I had all 4 accumulators replaced and WHAT A DIFFERENCE! My 600SL went from riding like a brick to a much smoother ride, even with the 18" wheels and SO-3's. No wonder, because all 4 old accumulators were bad - filled with 0% nitrogen, 100% hydraulic fluid.
