AIRMATIC died on our S280 a few years back. It costs a bomb to replace each unit on each wheel.  And it wasn't very comfy either - I say again, I do prefer spring setups for the long term. Our Phaeton's air suspension also has some low-speed issues, it feels really bumpy over a hump. But the A8's great at it when set at comfort mode. |
Airmatic back then was a pretty "useless" feature because the comfort advantages were minimal in my experience and according to reviews and even the salesman at our local MB dealership. But it has been improved and now, after having driven the new W221 S500, I can see that it can be a useful accessory.
