Airmatic issues solved with new pump

I've posted several times about my problems with Airmatic. Today I replaced the pump and it's made a world of difference. I'm posting this in the hope it may help some future reader with similar intermittent issues. For background, my car would drop in front for no good reason. SDS lead me to replace the valve, which helped a lot so it was definitely bad, and one of the front height sensors, which didn't seem to do much of anything. SDS didn't directly implicate the valve, but it failed a... Airmatic issues solved with new pump

2016 GLE350

I have a 2016 GLE350. I need 6 spark plugs and 1 ignition coil for cylinder #4 replaced. I was quoted 3 hours of labor + parts. Is 3 hours labor reasonable?

RPM @ 600

Hello to all, I believe that the idling RPM should be between 700 or between 700-800? How can I adjust this? I just changed my ABS relay and hoping that the air & fuel would adjust by itself. I used to have a problem with the ABS light at cluster would go on/off and the car would never start on first crank/start. After replacing the ABS relay, the ABS light is gone and the car starts now on first crank/start and hoping that the idling RPM would adjust itself as well. But idling still at 600... RPM @ 600

Tweak Paddle Shifters??

Hi all, Just a quick one really! Wanted to see if anyone knows how to change or tweak the settings of a Mercedes C Class paddle shifters so that they work when you use the + whilst the vehicle is in park so the vehicle can then drive off. Usually the only way to drive off is to put it in D from the side of the steering wheel. (preferably the w205 model!) I had an Alfa Romeo Giulia and every time I needed to set off, I used the paddle shift and off I went! The same worked when I put it in... Tweak Paddle Shifters??
