What are the necessary repairs
Hi, this really depends on its service history.
The following are the recommended service intervals on the Merc S500:
Note: operate A/C at least once per week, to maintain lubrication.
Underhood & Undervehicle
Every 3,000 miles - Replace engine oil & oil filter. Clean battery terminals. Adjust drive belt. Check power steering fluid. Check steering & CV BOOTS for wear and replace if necessary. Lubricate front end suspension.
Every 6,000 miles - Check transmission fluid condition and level. Check brake pads and caliper components - replace if necessary. Lubricate driveshaft U-joints. Rotate tires. Lubricate wiper arm linkage and pivots.
Every 12,000 miles - Adjust engine valve clearance. Replace distributor cap & rotor. Drain and replace engine Coolant. Replace Air Filter element. Replace Fuel Filter. Replace wiper blades.
Every 24,000 miles - Replace Drive Belt. Replace A/C Compressor Drive Belt. ** Change auto transmission fluid & trans filter (this is critical and must be adhered to) - preferrably do a trans flush at same time. Replace drive AXLE fluid.
Every 36,000 miles - Replace HT leads.
Every 2 years - Replace brake fluid (also clutch fluid if applicable). Replace power steering fluid.
** If you intend to keep this vehicle long term, then consider changing the trans fluid & filter every 20,000 miles. This is the secret to automatic transmission longevity.

Stop the car is too low... i rise it.. but 10 km
you have a leak in your airmatic suspension system. scn car for codes to see what component is leaking. usually it is one or bothof the front air springs where the line connects in the upper fender well. you can try jacking the car up and spray soapy water on the line connection-you will probably hear it anyways. they tend to leak when the suspension is unloaded, either way i would check the whole system to be safe
