Problem overview

Some Mercedes-Benz GL450 owners report experiencing issues with rear air suspension and air conditioning, often stemming from problems such as leaking air struts or compressor system failures, including motor burnout or cracked suspension lines. When leaks are detected, mechanics may need to replace seals or O-rings to resolve the issue. Additionally, owners may find that air conditioning problems require inspections for leaks, compressor functionality, and proper refrigerant levels. A weak battery warning on the dashboard can also indicate that a failing battery is impacting the vehicle's electrical components, including both the air suspension and air conditioning systems. Furthermore, some owners have encountered issues due to misaligned rear height sensor beams, which may necessitate recalibration to restore proper air suspension function. Addressing these concerns promptly is essential for maintaining the performance of the Mercedes-Benz GL450.
