Well whenever it is parked it always seem to lean downslope.

More than I would expect.

Is this normal?
 
Leans left or right, still air.

Not sure if standard or if leak.

If leak what are best bags?
 
Thanks

I will keep an eye on it and see what happens.

If it holds up and the pump is not running I will leave it until warmer weather
 
It seems to flop over downhill left or right

Are think your description of the problem needs clarification.

Are you saying that the rear of the car body sinks overnight or with extended non-usage?

Are you saying that rear sinks to the left or right randomly?

Well something does seem a bit wierd, it does seem to have a very slight lean to the right, but when parked it can lean slightly to the left down the slope.

If the blocks were not so much money I would recalibrate and start again.

But I never seem to park anywhere without a sideways slope

But importantly you are saying that this 'lean' could be either left or right rear side?

You keep mentioning a slope, and that's what is confusing me. Do you mean that you are parking on a sloping drive? Is it the ground that is slope ie non-level; or the vehicle? This shouldn't have anything to do with the left side/right side levelling, unless you are parking side on to the slope?

It would be helpful if you could describe the situation in more detail. Describe what you see.

PS It's a bit like pulling teeth, this.

Basically, the ground slopes at work, at home, at Tescos, nowhere does it seem to be flat

Change the air bags. If you think it's sloping it probably is. Mine looks straight and I park in fields and all sorts. Slopes slightly downward (toward the back) in park and only looks lopsided if on a big slope.

When one air bag needed changing it looked like yours, probably.
