Is it sinking of it's own accord or are you lowering it?

Similar symptoms to mine, it was a leak in an airbag in the part that folds under. Sometimes it sealed sometimes not. No problems so far since I changed all 4

I reckon that ratchety action is because the EAS is trying to maintain the car level to compensate for one airbag leaking by letting air out of the other bags via the valve block

Best way we have found to find the leaks is gas leak detection spray. Spray it around the bottom of the airsrings, all pipe connections on the valve block and the tops of the air springs.

Best wishes
