04 E55 AMG: Airmatic visit workshop
Posted: Thu Jun 24, 2021 9:42 am
I have seen this before, but pretty infrequently. Always goes away. It went away this time, too. I get the picture of a vehicle with an up arrow which refers to the Airmatic system and the Visit Workshop! message appears.
It happened while sitting in traffic and it seems like that's always when it appears. I also noticed that it felt like the damping system set itself to full stiff (Sport 2) even though it didn't indicate as such. But man it sure rode like hell. I got to my destination and when I restarted the message did not appear and the ride was normal. But, I'm about to go on a long-ass road trip so....I should fix this.
Finally scanned it and got these codes.
So I ordered a level sensor from FCP Euro.

$78 after I did the non-free shipping option to get it quicker. Unlike the STS, all sensor locations are the same part number which is nice. WIS says to recalibrate the ride height after doing a front sensor. I assume I need Star for that so that sucks. But, I can shim the sensor so hopefully I can get it in range and back to the right ride height. Or it'll be fine out of the box?
