Airmatic misalignment?????
I had some issues with the airmatic in my car (2003 E500)
Among the problems "visit workshop" I noticed that the rear passenger side of the car was higher then the driver side (3finger/2fingers between fender and rubber) I mentioned it to the SA, the main problem was corrected and i was told that all the setting are perfect....So i drove off. later on just out of curiosity did the "fingers test " again and the passenger side is STILL higher. Didnt complain yet to the dealer since i know a few guys who have benzes with airmatic. Did the rollcall and my friends with a SL600 '04 and a E500 '03 noticed the same differences. I will call the dealer about it but i am just wondering if anyone noticed this or is it a canadian thing? |

Ride height has always been a point on contention for a FEW MB owners.
Rarely will any vehicle MEASURE exactly the same at all 4 corners...MB as well as most car makers allow for a couple MM of +- to any car..NOW if you measure carefully & find 10-15MM difference you have a car that does need to have the ride height corrected. Make sure to use a tape measure to SHOW the service advisor the incorrect ride height.
