So 3 years of ownership and my first EAS issue.
I think it’s an air leak but looking for some advice.
Was away at a Wedding over the weekend. When we arrived at the hotel late evening I could hear a hissing from the rear of the Vehcile. It seemed equally loud each side so I’m not sure it’s just one air bag.
Next morning started it up and raised the suspension to extended and left it for an hour and it was fine. Then a couple of us sat on the tailgate for a bit without the engine running and the rear slowly dipped. But was silent.
On start up it levelled itself out fine. But on the way home there was a sudden loud hissing while driving along. It stayed at the motorway position. When arriving home I lower it to entry height.
And now it won’t raise. In fact it’s dropped lower down to the stops.
I can’t hear the compressor working, but Nanocom says it is. Sadly my exhaust also developed a leak over the weekend and it’s now rather loud on tickover potentially masking the noise of the compressor.
I’m not getting any error codes for the EAS.
Any suggestions on how to ID what exactly might be leaking?
The EAS controls just flash the level it’s trying to raise too. I assume the compressor is just blowing air straight out somewhere (at least I hope that is all it is).
