Hi... I need some help please... my rear air suspension on my 1995 Mark VIII is lowering after the car is parked on a very inconsistent basis. It is not one side or the other it is always the entire rear end. It can be several weeks before it will bottom out once. I finally caught it the other day. It had been parked and I moved the car to another spot and heard a discharge and then witnessed the rear end lowering... it took a few minutes.
My compressor was replaced a few years ago...and has been very loud again for just over a year now but doesn't seem to run extensively when it is filling or leveling the system. (It became very loud when it was replaced and I had the same symptoms of the rear end lowering at that time as well.)
My dealership is telling me they think I have two leaking rear air bags .. I am just not convinced this is the case as it is never one side or the other... always the entire rear end lowering. It does not drop when I am driving it.
If I understand correctly the air compressor feeds both bags on the rear from a Y connector.. thusly feeding both at the same time. Can a valve be intermitently sticking/failing causing the rear end to drop occasionally?
Thanks for your help....
