A1673200402R Rear Right Air Suspension Shock with ADS for Mercedes Benz E-class w167 GLE450 GLE450 GLE580 2019-2022

1. Product Introduction

Original OE Number: A1673200402R

Product Name: Mercedes-Benz W167 Rear Right Air Shock Absorber, GLE/GLS Rear Right Air Suspension Strut Assembly, Rear Right Air Strut with ADS Electronic Adaptive Damping

Installation Position: Rear axle, dedicated for right side. Fits Mercedes-Benz W167/V167/C167/X167 chassis GLE, GLE Coupe and GLS vehicles equipped with factory Airmatic air suspension and ADS adaptive damping system. It is a high-frequency vulnerable service component for load bearing, intelligent ride height adjustment, shock absorption, body posture balance and high-speed stability on the right rear side.

Product Description

OE A1673200402R is a dedicated rear-right air strut assembly with ADS for the new Mercedes-Benz W167 chassis. It forms a matched pair with A1673200302L (rear left) for GLE, GLE Coupe and GLS high-spec air suspension models. It integrates high-pressure burst-proof multi-layer air spring, precision hydraulic damper cylinder, OEM-spec ADS solenoid valve and multi-layer composite high-pressure sealing structure. It provides rear load bearing, intelligent ride height adjustment, real-time adaptive damping responding to road conditions, vibration & noise reduction, high-speed body stabilization, corner anti-roll and buffer shock absorption on rough roads. The ADS solenoid valve dynamically adjusts damping stiffness based on vehicle speed, road bump intensity and vehicle load. It balances comfortable ride on paved roads, stability during highway cruising and strong supporting performance under rough roads and full load, fully consistent with the original chassis tuning logic of Mercedes luxury SUV.

W167 GLE/GLS has large curb weight and heavy chassis load, so rear air struts are common wearing parts for air suspension system. Subject to trunk load, continuous road impact, inertial tension at high speed, alternating high and low temperatures all year round, corrosion by sediment and moisture, and repeated inflation and deflation cycles. The rubber of original air spring tends to age, harden, crack, bulge and develop slow air leakage. Inner sealing membrane fatigue, oil seal leakage and hydraulic oil degradation occur. Meanwhile, carbon deposit jamming and signal drift of ADS solenoid valve cause insufficient pressure retention, weak damping and electronic fault codes. Typical failure symptoms: rear right sag, vehicle sinks overnight, body left higher than right, tilted asymmetric rear end, frequent air compressor activation, slow or stuck height adjustment, height calibration failure, air suspension / ADS warning light on dashboard, bouncy rear end over speed bumps, floating feeling at high speed and loose chassis during turning with poor body following performance. Long-term driving with defective struts will continuously consume the service life of air compressor, valve block, air dryer and height sensor, triggering cascading failures of the whole air suspension system with extremely high subsequent repair cost.

This A1673200402R rear right ADS air strut is 1:1 reproduced strictly following Mercedes-Benz OEM data. Overall stroke, pressure rating, damping coefficient, air spring burst pressure, ADS electronic parameters, mounting holes, bushing dimensions and interface specifications fully match OEM standards. It adopts imported thickened multi-layer high-pressure rubber airspring with wide temperature resistance, double anti-leak sealing structure, thickened anti-rust precision piston rod, long-life anti-degradation hydraulic oil and high-sensitivity OEM-grade ADS solenoid valve. Upgraded anti-aging, anti-cracking, anti-corrosion, anti-fatigue and burst-resistant performance fundamentally solves inherent OEM defects including air leakage, rear sag, weak damping, poor pressure retention at low temperature, abnormal ADS signals and fault codes. This version is dedicated for rear right of W167 chassis; left and right differ in structural angle, damping ratio and electronic control logic and are not interchangeable. Direct bolt-on installation without chassis modification. Air tightness inspection, ride height calibration and ADS matching calibration are required after installation, fully compatible with original Airmatic and ADS ECU. It completely repairs rear-right collapse, slow air leakage, abnormal height adjustment, loose chassis, high-speed instability and fault codes, restores tight luxury chassis texture.

With high stability, durability and low rework rate, it is a hot-selling spare part for repair shop maintenance, auto parts bulk stocking and cross-border e-commerce sales.

5. FAQ

1. Q1: Which vehicles fit OE A1673200402R? A: Fits Mercedes‑Benz W167 GLE, GLE Coupe and GLS 2019‑Present with factory Airmatic air suspension and ADS adaptive damping. Not applicable for non-ADS air suspension, mechanical springs or old W292/W166 chassis.
2. Q2: Is this strut for rear left or rear right? Can left and right swap? A: This part is exclusively for rear right axle, paired OE A1673200302L (rear left). Rear left and rear right struts differ in structural angle, damping ratio and solenoid matching logic. Interchange is strictly prohibited. Improper mixing will cause tilted rear end, air suspension / ADS fault codes, abnormal height adjustment and unbalanced chassis posture.
3. Q3: Can it be installed on vehicles without ADS system? A: Not available. This strut has built-in ADS solenoid valve. Non-ADS vehicles lack corresponding wiring and control unit. Continuous fault codes will pop up and adaptive damping function cannot work normally.
4. Q4: Does computer coding need after replacement? A: No coding required, but air-tightness inspection, ride height calibration and ADS solenoid matching calibration must be performed, clear fault codes before operation.
5. Q5: What symptoms indicate replacement of this rear right strut? A: Rear right sag, vehicle sinks overnight, obvious height difference that left body higher than right, frequent compressor operation, slow stuck height adjustment, air suspension / ADS warning lamp on, bouncy rear end over pits, floating rear end at high speed and loose chassis during turning. These symptoms indicate airspring leakage or ADS solenoid failure, replacement is recommended.
6. Q6: Can I replace only the single rear right strut? A: Pair inspection & replacement (rear left + rear right) is strongly recommended. Old and new struts differ in pressure retention, damping response and ADS sensitivity. Single-side replacement may cause asymmetric rear posture and uneven bump performance, affecting comfort and driving safety.
7. Q7: Can interchangeable OE numbers replace each other freely? A: Yes. A1673200402R and its alternative OEs have identical parameters, structure, electronic control and mounting dimensions. They are OEM upgraded replacement parts for direct bolt-on installation.
