Is it normal for the vehicles with air suspension to lose some height overnight?
My rear left goes down a weebit.
If its normal whats the range thats usually normal?
Thanks

No, it shouldn't... You have a leak. Hopefully RAUDI will chime in. He's the air suspension master.

Well, I don't know if I'm the master but I've had my share of dealing with this suspension.

You're suspension should not move at night. If it does you have a leak.

Wait till it gets worse so you don't misdiagnose what shock it is.

Left side rear. Every night it goes down on that side. As soon as I unlock the car...the pump runs and corrects it.
So my buddy is trying to order the bag, hook up the nitrogen filling etc and the worn out compressor piston etc.
Will post up pictures when he starts to fix it.

Looking forward to the pics and a report on progress.

Compressor isn't worn out. The shock is leaking. Don't waste the cash, Just get a pair of shocks and call it a day.

My friend will be working on it this weekend. He also ordered a compressor rebuild kit. The compressor was also worn out. Hes also making a connector and arranging a nitrogen tank.

how do you know the compressor is worn out?

My buddy who works on our cars...he opened the compressor and it had worn out parts. He ordered a rebuild kit from someplace. Will ask him exact details and post here

Did you ever fix this? Do you have the compressor kit part numbers?

 

[virkdoc]

Yes he ordered the compressor parts from Ebay UK and 2 rear bellows,,,,not the complete shocks.
The ebay kit was from China. I will ask him for the link.

How is the cayenne running now? Ride quality?

Hi Raudi...the car is running well. Though I drive it slammed down I do lift it up ever so often to feel good that the suspension actually works. The compressor doesnt come on now every few minutes like in the past.
Loving the car.
Ride quality honestly is more or less the same.

What does "slammed down" consist of? And no photos?
