Yellowspeed will fit. But go to mbworld.org and read the very detailed threads there about the system. They are not the best. Strutmasters probably are...but the ride height is high.The garage haven’t come back with a definite price yet but he’s said it would be cheaper and more reliable going down the spring route. Just wondering if yellowspeed coilovers will fit on mine as it says airmatic rand mine is abc
The only thing being on an ABC car you will need to replace the power steering pump as it's a tandem pump with one half for power steering and the other half for ABC.Yellowspeed will fit.

But yes...these kits will work for your car because they replace everything whether ABC or air.
And recode the powertrain to a 320 to not throw up endless suspension fault codes...The only thing being on an ABC car you will need to replace the power steering pump as it's a tandem pump with one half for power steering and the other half for ABC.

Knew the arb was a problem on SL600s but wasn't sure on the S class.And you will be missing an antiroll bar on the V12 as there is a big stonking engine in the way.
And you will killl the handling and characteristics of the car.
I would never do it to one I like...... The cost of the conversion is also quite high compared to most ABC repair costs.....
Coil packs can be repaired now too.Thanks everyone, it’s gave me something to think about and I’m going to go down the route of repairing the ABC, after I’ve sorted this I think it needs a coil pack £££££
ill let you know how I get on
