►Mercedes’ Airmatic air suspension system has been the class of the field for several decades. However, that doesn’t save them from the same faults any strut and spring have. The E63 AMG’s sport-tuned struts will wear over time and eventually need replacement after around 100,000 miles of use. When they fail, you’ll receive error messages on the dashboard, and the vehicle won’t ride like it used to.
Replacing the E63 AMG’s Airmatic strut is more involved than a strut with a steel string, but the basic steps are the same.

So. The car is brought down? Does the compressor automatically add air to the strut before it is brought down? Did you have to start the engine while it was up in the lift? Were the struts filled with air before installation? I’m confused. Sorry
Yes!!! Engine mounts! Or some oxygen sensors
Can you do engine mounts next
