Default rear suspension

I leave my car sitting out for a few hours, when I come out the rear is dropped very low and the front is raised up high. If I start the car it raises itself back to normal... Do I have a leak somewhere or is that how it's suppose to be?? [sm=dontgetit.gif]

Default RE: rear suspension

is it a disco ? because on a disco when you stop or turn the ignition off the airbags let most of the air out dropping the rear end of the car, this picture is a disco for sale, but to me it looks like the airbags have nearly had it, is this like yours ?

aperently these guys make some kickass airbags with a lifetime warranty. (also cheaper than OEM bags)

hope that helps you out.

You know when people post a question they are looking for information that will help them decide the best plan of attack on fixing their problems. The information you gave this person is so far from accurate, I can't believ you even wrote it.
D 2's let out one short blast of air when being turned off, while the driver is getting out. The reason they do it is to set the truck level from left to right, they do not bleed down allowing the rear to drop unless there is a fault going on. Same for Rangies, over many days, they will settle, evenily at all four tires to be raised when the truck startrs again. When they only drop at the rear there is a fault as his warning light is indicating. This should be checked by a shop that is used to working on them and corrected. This can be an easy repair like having it recalibrating the system, changing out some height sensors or some other problem.
As Bene has mentioned if you needed to replace air bags, our sponser makes by far the best replacements.
Take care,
Mike
