Check air ride

My black 93 just threw a error for the air ride it isn't lowering at speed. I would guess the vent valve is going bad. I did a search on the install of a Spider valve and didn't find much. I put an external vent valve on the maroon 93 for about $40 but it took me some time to fab the mounting. If the spyder valve is an easier install it may be worth the expense. Does anyone have any info on the spyder valve install?

Only use the brakes to stop and get gas.
 
RE: Check air ride

I put a spider valve on my MK8 a couple of years ago and all has been well since. It comes with a comprehensive, illustrated set of instructions that are easily followed. About all I can add to them is to check with a soapy water solution for leaks, as those little air lines are prone to not seating properly and consequently leaking.
Checking pressure at the schrader valve with a tire gauge, looking for pressure loss is another way to tell if it is leaking.
