Are you tired of dealing with the headaches and expenses of a failing air suspension system in your 1999 Mercedes Benz E320 Wagon? You’re not alone. Many owners of this classic wagon face the common issue of air suspension problems, which can lead to a bumpy ride, uneven vehicle height, and hefty repair bills. Fortunately, there’s a solution that offers lasting relief and significant savings: converting to a coil spring suspension.
The Frustrations of Air Suspension in Your E320 Wagon
The factory-installed air suspension in the 1999 Mercedes Benz E320 Wagon, while initially designed for a smooth and luxurious ride, is notorious for developing problems over time. These sophisticated systems rely on rubber air bags, an air compressor, height sensors, and complex electronics, all of which are prone to wear and tear. Common issues include:
- Leaking Air Bags: The rubber air bags, or “air springs,” can develop leaks due to age and environmental factors. This leads to a loss of air pressure, causing the vehicle to sag, often unevenly.
- Compressor Failure: The air compressor works hard to maintain pressure in the system. Over time, it can burn out or become inefficient, especially when trying to compensate for leaks.
- Height Sensor Malfunctions: These sensors tell the system the vehicle’s ride height. If they fail, the suspension may not adjust correctly, leading to an uncomfortable or unsafe ride.
- Electronic Control Unit Issues: The suspension control module is the brain of the system. Electrical problems or failures within this unit can cause a range of suspension malfunctions.
These issues not only compromise ride comfort and vehicle handling but also lead to significant repair costs. Replacing air struts, compressors, and other components with OEM parts can quickly become incredibly expensive.
