Twice already out of the blue while driving the left airbag starts leaking air. I hit a pothole over the weekend and lost air on the left side, which caused the right side to drop as well. This also happened 2 months ago as well.

Just trying to figure out if something is loose. I left it for an hour, came back and it inflated fine.


Any ideas?

 

They get leaks in the folds sometimes, maybe you hit the pot hole hard enough to expose a leak? Mostly leaks over time though if it would leak that much under a load.

Also, not sure if theres a pressure relief valve, if there is maybe it opened if you hit it hard.

 

Ahhh.. pressure release valve. Makes sense.

But can someone confirm if there is one, and if this issue would sounds plausible?

 

If there's an air leak it needs carefully checking out. If there is, the compressor will run continuously and finally burn out. If the compressor burns out that's serious $$$$$$$$ bucks to replace.

See the other thread on SLS air springs.
