my 06 navigator 2wd has been having issues. The front right air ride bag deflates as soon as i turn the truck off. And when i restart it it inflates but drops continually until all of the sudden it will just stay up. Sometimes it will stay inflated all night and well into the next day. Then i will take a drive and when i stop it immediately deflates. The check suspension light came on for about 10 seconds twice over the last month but i do not have any stored codes. yesterday I was able to inflate the bag, pull the wheel and spray everything visible down with soapy water. I did not see any leaks. So i ran the car and shut the system off with the switch, right away the check suspension light came on and i could hear the bag deflating. I sprayed more solution but did not see anything leaking. When i replaced the wheel and restarted the system and truck the bag inflated and stayed firm. I measured just under 34" on both sides several times through out the day and well into the night as well as this morning. my wife drove to work and when she got there and turned the truck off it deflated completely again. Does anyone have an idea of what may be causing this issue?

Can you tell where the air is leaking out from? I mean is it right at the air shock or is it somewhere else in the truck?

 

sounds like its coming from around the top of the air spring.

 

That sounds like the bladder is what's leaking. Since it's a moving 'seal' it would explain why it sometimes it holds pressure and sometimes it doesn't.
