    Both or other things like a bad line etc. Best thing to do is too scan the Hydraulic Suspension system and then trace down the actual cause. I just worked on an AMG S55 with suspension issues and its suspension system really complex.

    go to your dealer and have codes pulled. You can get this done by asking for a diagnostic only. don't tell them whats wrong as they will follow that problem only. Ask for a suspension diagnostic with a printout. it costs about $150 depending on your location.
