I am looking for help, PLEASSSSSE

Car: 1996 HSE (RHD)

Problem:
When Parking the car, I leave it at off road mode. Night past and a little bit cold. The next morning the car on bump stops, but no EAS Warning. If starting to pump the EAS up to normal mode it will take forever to lift, Then open door and wait 10 minutes, were by the front spring will bounce and heard a Psssss sound with spring on driver side deflates. Confused, but opened door again and waited another 10 minutes and it pump all 4 x springs to normal and then off road mode.

Then drove 7 kilometers , parked car at work, left it for 2 hours and driver side EAS down to bumps stops. Same procedure, but no Psss sound and car was up and ready for the hole day.

I have tested the car with EAS relay out and in. The one day it will drop then it will not drop.

If it is not the driver side bag, what made the Psss noise when trying to inflate air spring. ?????

I really would like to get this resolve as I am reallllly (Gatvol) struggling with this and would like to save the hole EAS thing, and not converting to coils.... (Thinking strongly to convert).....

Thanks

The Pssss noise is more than likely the compressor exhausting when it reaches 150 psi. 6 to 10 minutes is about the time it takes to fill the tank from empty. You have a leak somewhere i would think.

Thanks for the reply... Will replace the front one and see what happens.

I had a similar problem, turned out to be a faulty height sensor, stealer had a problem finding a new one but you can change sides and use a different area of contact.

Thanks for the info, I have a gut feeling that the leaking Bellows is not the only problem I have. :doh:

But will wait and see when this is replaced.
