I FIXED IT! Let me be clear. The ABC hydraulic suspension on my CL65 AMG IS FIXED! This is my favorite video in the series for obvious reasons but this was seriously fun. It was a good from start to finish diagnosis video so if you’re into this kind of stuff, enjoy!

Buongiorno posso eliminare abc sostituire con ammortizzatori a molla? Grazie buona giornata
Hi Alex. I have a S65. 2006. And my abc pressure states 118. I had a hose pop and replaced it. Now that I go over a bump the red abc light comes on for about a second and disappears. Could you explain. Do I need to add air in the tank like you did. Thanks.
the cold wind looks terrible lol…your def in ny or nj
im buying a 06 cl55…how many miles this car had?
I love these cars, I want one but I'm so afraid of the ABC.
What does it mean when it says strut moves but locking valve is closed?
😊
Thank you and yes your right its worth it!! I love my 2002 CL500 I got it in 2007 and I fix all too.
Me being a plumber would have to make an ABC snake
Just finished the video, so happy for you bro!
I’m with you brother, I have a 07 s65 that’s in great working condition, did all mounts and coils etc, before anything breaks I’m going with steel lines, new gaskets for valve blocks, and if a strut fails they rebuild them better than factory for a mere 600 each, definitely worth every penny
I have a total newbie question. When putting an SL with the ABC system on a four post lift is there any kind of setting or any kind of set up that you have to do to the suspension as to not damage it or to prevent it from extending?thank you very much and advance
Wow you made it. You fix it. Congrats dude. Since im watching from far away philippines am responding to an old vlog but hopefully you' ll come across this .
Cl65 let's go!
GREAT VID! QUESTION: I HAVE MULTIPLE VEHICLES WITH EITHER FRONT OR REAR SQUATTING AIRMATIC PROBLEMS AND I AM WONDERING IF POSSIBLE TO CONVERT TO COILOVERS FOR JUST THE FRONT OR JUST THE REAR?? HOW WOULD YOU HANDLE HYDRAULICS/ELECTRONICS?? CAP OFF HYDRAULICS? BUT WHAT ABT ELECTRONICS? THANKS FOR YOUR OPINION
ALEX you would look good in these shoes………and nothing else
By the best video I have seen for the dreaded ABC.
Your confidence in your ability is amazing to watch.
Congrats.
I currently have the mental anguish with a 95 Ford Probe GT engine. 6 months in and it works…. mostly.
If you are still having problems with the door functions in your CL65 check the ground. I had the same in a 2005 CI55 Good luck
Blessings to you for figuring this out.
Hey bro can u help me. Since we both have cl's.. its hard to find someone my starter purple wire sat on the chasis and doesnt crank no more my cars been sitting forever/; please and thank you. Shoutout.. yeah my car had drive unauthorized before that or idk it might have done that
You got me with the “you ever question yourself why you do this? I just take these cars on the highway and smash the pedal and it all melts away” 😂😂😂 I’m telling you it’s all a crazy feeling
As I read "Mercedes Enthusiast" mag and it says choose an S-Class WITHOUT hydraulic suspension, I now understand why
Hello Alex, I'm Kevin and I have a 2003 CL5t00 that is completely squatting on the front and Back. I get a code that say to "Stop car is too low" Go to maintenance shop. None of them can schedule me for 2 weeks. My question is must I absolutely stop driving the? It has been squatting for 3 days now, and I have driven it to work, about 11 miles each way. Am I damaging the system or the car further by driving it until I can get service?
Really impressed that you try to rework the mercedes ABC system. NOT so impressive using a steel wire brush to clean o-rings and connectors 🙂
I have a 2001 CL500. Would you happen to know the Item number for those factory AMG wheels on that car? I want to go back with OEM wheels. These low profiles are eating my lunch. Also, what is the name of the device you are using for Diagnostics?
diag tools and the car`s ECU constantly checking whats wrong will drain the battery …its not th battery`s fault that your diag is connected ~2weeks 🙂
First Thing I would thrown into trash would be this aftermarket control. Thought it in the first video, when you picked up the car. 😮 I am not at 28:54 Let’s see. I bet it’s working now 😅
I watched 10 hours of the CL Videos now during 2 days. I WANT TO SEE IT DRIVE NOW 😂😂😂😂 😅😅 it’s so cool, to watch, but I am also very down, cause I don’t wanna a V12 anymore 😂 thanks for ruin my dream 😅 best regards out of GERMANY 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪
It is awesome that you fixed the problem. Congratulations I know how it feels, when everything you try doesn't work,but you keep at it till you figure it out.
Ok, I am waaay behind on catching up on your vids(caught up with the last few months but now going back years) hence the random nowhere comment but I HAD to comment when I saw the SNL skit. 😂😂😂 LOVE that and SO fits this series, lol. Cheers Alex 🤘🤘
Haha that’s total Dude 15:30 it’s coming soon it’s gonna be solve 👍🏻
Alex…
Still waiting broo
Need motivation to work on my W220 S55amg with ABC.
Driving like a Mercedes owner 😂
My friend's car has similar problems how can we help him
These fancy individual self learning control modules are extremely sensitive and completely annoying without the expensive 2 way diagnostic tool that can reset the individual modules
great video. thanks..If the entire ABC suspension system has failed, can this Benz be considered near totaled? because there are so many parts of the system that could have failed and the time it takes to truly find out could result in $10k of parts and labor. who wants to risk that when buying a used w220 or CL with a total failed ABC suspension.
you have the same nose profile as Bruce Willis
Congratulations! You basically have a Super Car, it's a 2 door AMG, a 12 cylinder engine with twin turbo & big injectors. All it needs is probably a Liberty body kit & big wide wheels.
Mine is leaking out of the reservoir. The cap is tight and new filter.
Don't forget these engine castings come out of china and are way inferior to the oldschool german made ones from the past. I saw the pinhole bubble in the intake. Chinese made crap.
To construct a good reliable 6 in line or a v12 u need 2 separate cooling circuits with 2 waterpumps and radiators, 1 for the 1st 3 or 6 cilinders and 1 for the 3 or 6 close to the firewall. They, re fancy engines but after racing them they easily crack if u can't run them slower to cool down properly. If u end up in a trafficjam after speeding the heath under the hood cant go nowhere.
Most 6 in lines i owned got cracked cilinder heads or gaskets after doing some proper speeding. Have 2 v8's a 560 sec and a s500 and they never gave me engine problems.
Did 155 mph in a BMW 750 for half an hour and ended up in a jam, after the jam she start using coulant and we found out the middle block was cracked. She build up to much heath speeding and that heath could not go anywhere idling in the traffic jam so the block cracked. No space under the hood for ventilation. And now airflow in the trafficjam. Took 2 weeks to repair and sold the car straight away. V8 or 4 in line is thermic way better. Before the coolant gets at the 5th and 6th or 9th til 12th cilinders its already too warm to cool the engine near the firewall properly. The block is too long.
