Suspensionproblems

[renerex2003]

On my 420 the adaptive suspension has got stuck in the "Sport" position - , with 18" Wheels this causes very little suspension travel - , causing rubbing on the inner fenders - ! Have tried to read the codes, but get no fault on suspension?
Some has suggested the rear selflevelingvalve as a possible culprit - , this on okular seem to do its job - , lever moving with load, and no sinking of suspension - , tried with 200 kg load in boot - !

Anyone with any ideas as to what the cause could be - ! (Servo to steering working perfect - , and have tried the full turn air release)

Do you mean the switch by the gear lever with W and S on it ?

Does it have ADS front and rear

 

[Naraic]

As above...ads.

 

[renerex2003]

No problem with the switch - , it works as intended shifting between the sport and Winter settings - , however the suspension as such do not react accordingly - !

 

[Frontstep]

The suspension does not react with that switch.

 

[renerex2003]

No of course not i am fooling round in the switchgear of course i mean the adaptive suspension switch with the image resembling a shockabsorber - !

 

[renerex2003]

It does have ads at the rear - , but whether it has it at the fronti cant say off hand - , but as it is an avantgarde and relatively fully loaded i should imagine that it does have - , what other do you need a hydraulic suspension for - !

 

[renerex2003]

Has checked - , the car has ADS front and rear, with auto leveling rear suspension

Sounds like the solenoid valve for the rear end has failed.

WG M-B:
Could you elaborate on that ? Where is this solenoid situated ?
