Mercedes-Benz CLS — 悬挂保养

• C218 CLS: AIRMATIC air suspension standard on most variants — same maintenance as E-Class/S-Class AIRMATIC
• AIRMATIC compressor filter and air strut inspection every 60,000 km; air strut replacement each
• C257 CLS: conventional multi-link suspension — front struts 80,000–120,000 km

Mercedes-Benz models use either conventional strut/spring suspension or AIRMATIC air suspension (GLE, S-Class, and some GLC). Conventional suspension: shock absorbers last 60,000–80,000 km in Malaysian conditions; budget per pair. AIRMATIC: air springs ( each) and air suspension pump () are expensive — the compressor is the most common failure. Signs of AIRMATIC failure: vehicle sitting low on one corner, compressor noise at startup, suspension warning light. Avoid aftermarket coilover conversions that eliminate AIRMATIC — they cause handling issues and may affect safety systems.
