Re: Air suspension issues (or "#%$@!" again!)
I thought I'd post a follow-up here to complete the archive. I took it by the dealer and they said it's the airbags so I feel like I've dodged a bullet of sorts since the compressor is okay.
The bags were $158.00 each (thinking I saw a post here mentioning $90 each?) plus labor and will be installed this Friday.
I'd planned to look at the system this weekend, but a very enjoyable soccer tournament kept me busy. Yesterday evening I climbed under to have a look and both air bags are dry rotted and cracked badly, it's a wonder they hold air at all.
I wonder if I got a bad original set, or if some preventative protectant should be applied when the new ones are installed? It's lame that these would go out due to deteriotation at 70K miles.
