Default height control

2003 sl500..

had not been driven for about 10 days, on starting warning lights came on
"car too low" , the right front was some what lower than the left,
it did not correct itself, so i pressed the height controls and it righted itself..
obviously something in the ride control has leaked down,,,it had never done this before.
is this a signal that something is failing or is it not unusual after several days of
going unused ???
thanks
glen

Mercedes says if any car with ABC hydraulic suspension sits for a long period of time about a weeks time, or in extreme cold that this is a normal condition. i wouldnt worry about it. if it does this everyday then there could be a problem.
