I would not throw money at this problem until you know what is wrong; possibly get a diagnosis and fix quite from a Mercedes repair shop?

COMPLETE MISUNDERSTANDING of the system.  OK my ride is rock hard.  Maybe I only need the accumulators.  I didn't realize the shocks are hooked to the accumulators.  Is there a way to check/method etc... to trouble shoot the system?  I just got the wrong shocks.  I saw the whole system and now I understand how it works.  I didn't realize the accumulators didn't hold up the rear end.  It is the shocks that do that.  Is it possible only one of the accumulators is bad or one shock bad and both accumulators or both shocks and both accumulators...It's mind boggling.  HELP...   I understand this.  If the shocks are dry with no leaking  it's the accumulators.  If so do I replace both or try to test each accumulator.   Lawrence Rhodes....
