problem #1

Jan 012010

CL600 AMG 6L V12

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,000 miles

It is really common for the Active Body Control (ABC) hydraulic suspension system to fail on the CL600.

The ABC Accumulators are a known wear item and will eventually fail when the rubber diaphragm in side them brakes and sends nitrogen gas into the system.

If the suspension fully leaks out the suspension will collapse and the car will look like it's slammed.

Long term it is best to just delete the AMC system and replace with aftermarket coilover suspension.
