I’ve got the big one with the air connection to remove the oil and it’s
quite good, also based on Jono’s recommendation.
Get at least two high lift stands, one isn’t enough.You can support one
end of the car while you lift something on the other end to ensure you
don’t disrupt the balance

Our E320 has that code. I know the pump runs. My brother tells me there's
a sensor, which is how it knows that air pressure is insufficient. Sensor could

I jacked up the front and got the tires off the ground, put it on
stands. Turned it on, the air pump came on and the rear (on ground)
pumped up and was fine and held but the system pressure was dropping, so
I surmise the rear solenoids closed and were holding air in the bags
despite the error
So I got everything buttoned up on the $1500(nee900)E500 having diddled around
enough with the airmatic. Got the fender liners back in, wheels on, dropped the
rear onto the ground and YAY ME it did not slam down! I was feeling good.
So then I dropped the front… bugger! It slammed down! So
My 90E320 throws that code and sometimes on startup it dies after a coupla
seconds but then restarts and runs OK. The supposed fix is to get under the
intake manifold and fix some leaking hoses. They are impossible to reach
without doing that and I’m too lazy to fool with it.
