  1. I have a cls 219 2006. I'm getting the Vehicle is rising every time i get in the car and had the Stop the car level is low warning sign a couple of times after driving for a while and have to stop and wait while it pumps up again. Sometimes just the front goes down and and sometimes all four corners go down.

    I wouldn't imagine the two front struts and the back airbags would all have leaks at the same time.
    So could it be the sensors and would a diagnostic machine pinpoint the exact problem/problems.

Star diagnostics should take the guessing out of your situation.

Sounds like an air leak or tired pump.
On some vehicles there's a small air filter on the pump inlet that can break up and block the inlet.

Oh right gotcha.
Took it to an indie the other day and and he's diagnostic machine pinpointed that the problem was with the front passenger strut.
In actual fact when he turned the wheel you could hear the air leaking out of it.
He recommended an Arnott strut. Which he is going to install for me.
