[W126 Coupe] Hydraulic Suspension on 560SEC

[Ernie Stephens]

I'm not sure why they are bleeding the system other than to relieve the pressure.  I'll call them right now and see if I can get an answer . . . .be back momentarily.

  No....they will just refill it and pretty much self bleeds.  But...why are they draining it to begin with?

    Mike,
    Will there be any issues restoring the system?  The shop is concerned that they may need special tools to bleed and restore the system.

      There's a bleed screw on top of the hydraulic valve in the back of the car (it's attached by an arm to the center of the rear sway bar).

      I have my 87 560SEC at an alignment shop for installation of the KMAC camber adjusting kit that I mentioned in a previous email.  The shop has run into a problem; they don't know how to bleed the hydraulic suspension.  Can anyone offer some help here.

      Thanks,
