Default SLS suspension problem 99 Disco II

Normal everyday driving is great, but when I do anything off road my airbags will eventually deflate for some reason. I try to use the button on the dash to raise it back up, and it does flash on the instrument panel that it is going up, but it never does. The doors are all closed, Ive tried it in Low and High gears, and all gears including park. The first time this happened, I went out to start it up 2 days later, and the air bags raised the rover right up to normal level!?!?!. This has happened a couple of times now, anyone ever heard of this or have any suggestions?

with it being 7 years old almost, maybe it is just time to replace them, maybe they have some pinhole leaks or cracks in the bags

Thats what most people might think, but they stay inflated all the time, over nigtht, all week, whatever. But the only time they deflate is when Im on a trail, or when I got stuck in the snow. It deflated instantly, and I have no idea if that is normal.

If your gonna be doing some off roading you might as well do a coil conversion. Way better and if you have a bag go on you while on the trail your screwed. Is your rig swaying back and forth a bunch on the trail and putting too much pressure on indvidual air bags, causing them to release pressure?
