Question on Rear Air Bags.

Recently my compressor was not functioning.

My rear began to sag after about 5 days.
Do they slowly leak down??? Or does mine have a slow leak.

I leave mine in the garage for days at a time and see no difference. However, when I start the truck the compressor always runs for a few seconds.

Can you visually tell the rear has gone down, or is it just the compressor running? Have you tried to measure the before and after? The bags may just leak down a bit. Unless... http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

Did you ever get the "right rear door ajar" problem figured out?

No !!!
They kept in 4 days and said it started working on its on, So they returned it to me, when I picked it up Fri pm it still said "right rear dooor ajar" I returned on Mon. and they have been working on it all week. They said they tried a new BCM and that did not fix it. Yesterday I called and they informed me that they had a new BCM on order (sigh!!!). While they have my truck I wanted to make sure that there was not a leak problem that needed to be dealt with....

The sag is noticeable visually, but mostly when I go around corners with the 38 x15.5 tires the rubbing on the frame is what gives it away...

Before my BCM went bad it "fixed itself" several times also. Which dealership did you take it to? I hope they get your ride fixed and back to you soon.
