2203200258 Air Suspension Valve Block Replacment for Mercedes W220 S-Class S350 S430 S500 S600 S55 S65 AMG

This is a Chinese made version of OEM, but these w220 cars are getting old and it comes down to the choice of, do you want to pay 300+ for OEM or ~50 for a cheaper version from China. It’s personal preference and use your judgment and consider the condition of your car. So far, after about 2 months, it’s worked flawlessly since installation! Will give a 1 year update if it hopefully lasts that long. Also, a proper and dirt free/clean installation is defintely key to these valve body units lasting awhile. I couldn’t tell ANY difference in build quality between OEM German version and this version. If this unit gives out I will disassemble and compare to internals of OEM version. Well worth the 50 bucks in my opinion even if it lasts 1/3 the lifespan of OEM. Easy to change out, inexpensive part.

This part works great! They provided fast and accurate service. I would highly recommend them.

I read the reviews before buying this, I figured I give it a shot and see if it actually give me issues. Well I installed it and so far it works just fine. I have no issues at all.

It's plastic junk . The original was aluminum , and this thing is plastic and strips out . you can't get anything tight

First thing, realize that this isn't going to last forever. If you have a shop do a test and you're having leakage from your struts or reservoir then you probably lost your valve block. I replaced mine about a year ago, with the same style and quality, it failed a couple weeks ago. So don't expect it to last forever l, but it's the best quality for the price on Amazon. It fits perfectly and is a direct replacement.

The pressure sensor on the end of this valve block failed in December after installing in July. Not worth that much effort for such a short time and do it again. Don't buy cheap parts w/o a warranty, which amazon 30 days is not sufficient for auto parts.CORRECTION: 12/23/23 I found later that the plug was not tight enough and made poor connection to the pressure sensor. It works now. Might have loosened because of the vibration of this noisey pump.

It works! I just re-used the plastic lines and fittings, rather than cut them and monkey. Car doesn't sag anymore when parked. Mercedes unit costs like 4X this much. Parts guy at dealer said these parts go bad al l the time, and that's OEM parts. Now, if everything else on the car was as easy to fix, I'd be really happy. Took me a day and a half, but I'm 77, and took my time. A bit hard getting that plastic inner fender liner out.

I love the price, the dealer wanted $350.00.
