Default Loud bang and abc issues

Was driving to the gym this morning heard a loud bang then abc warning in red came on and won’t go off. Little history the abc will flash and go off when I hit a speed bump too hard. Also when it sits for a hour or so the left front will drop, but will lift once I start the car. Now the whole left side is very low and won’t raise. Also right looks lower than normal. I checked and the reservoir is empty and I noticed fluid on the wet pavement at gym. Just wondering if any suggestions on where to start? Hoping just a line busted but who knows. 04 sl500

it doesn't sound good. first don't drive it. without fluid you'll destroy the pump and cause particles to go through out the system ruining it all. fill the reservoir with pentosin chf11s and start and quickly look for leaks underneath, especially at each corner. don't let the reservoir go dry. there are coil over kits that replaces the abc system and will need sway bars to go with the kit.
