AIRMATIC is a Mercedes term for air suspension. ABC stands for Active Body Control. ABC was rare option on all S-Class models. ABC however was standard on all S-600, S-55, and S-65 models. You can tell which suspension by opening the hood of your car and examining the top of the shock absorber.If the car is equiped with AIRMATIC, you will have clear air lines leading from the top of the shocks.
If your car is equiped with ABC, you will have small black electrical plugs leading into the top of both shocks.

How do I remove the air lines from my compressor dryer or solenoid?

How long do air suspension parts last?
The air springs normally last 80,000 to 100,000 miles. Over this time, the rubber bladder dries out, and cracks around the bottom piston. Compressors usually wear out due to leaky air springs. For the most part, the computer and height sensors normally last the life of the vehicle.

Should I replace the air suspension parts or just convert my car to coil springs?

Sometimes customers also confuse the air suspension compressor with the ABS (brakes) compressor. The ABS compressor will have metal lines rather than plastic ones.

No the air springs are just like the originals. You will not notice any difference in ride quality. We design our air springs with the same spring rate and load capabilities set by the original manufacturer.
