i have the same exact problem except i have no "clunking".. (but havent
replaced any accumulators).. the fluid level is maintined at its MAX.. from
what i remember the spring is ok.. any ideas other than accumilators..
ive heard that you can manually pump fluid into the rear SLS and so is the
case with the W124 stationwagon.. but havent had the time to explore
