I have 06' ML500 new shape , it seems the suspension is no longer going up as it should and its riding low , can any one tell me of a reset button or fuse before I have to assume the worst ? any advice would be greatly appreciated

Can't remember the locations off the top of my head... The relay is in the Front SAM and are prone to burning out when the compressor dies (Very common problem).

Is it still in warranty?

Can't complain then.

Unfortunately they are MB's major down falls. The 7Generation boxes and AIRmatic compressors lol. As long as you don't have a self closing boot lid then your 164 should be pretty good from now on. wink
