Detailed Description

Arnott AS-2246 is engineered as a remanufactured replacement for the front right corner of Mercedes-Benz air suspension systems. The assembly combines a rebuilt OE foundation with a new Goodyear bladder, CNC-machined aluminum piston components, and a new harness to address common wear points in the air strut. It is designed for vehicles with AIRMATIC and without 4MATIC, and it cross-references OE Mercedes-Benz part numbers used in the same application. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Compatible With Mercedes-Benz CLS350, CLS500, CLS550, E280, E320, E350, E500, and E550 front right air suspension applications across the listed model years. AS-2246 is a direct-fit service part for restoring front-end ride control on the specified vehicles.

What It Helps Fix

• Front right corner sagging from a leaking air spring bladder
• Uneven ride height caused by worn air suspension components
• Excessive bouncing or reduced damping control
• Air suspension warning lights related to strut performance
• Noisy or unstable ride from worn internal strut parts

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify that the vehicle is equipped with AIRMATIC and does not have 4MATIC before ordering. Confirm the front right position and compare the original strut, connector, and mounting style to the replacement part. After installation, the air suspension system should be checked for leaks and the vehicle should be allowed to level before road testing.
