air suspension/ 2002 4WD Eddie bauer

How do you check ( or verify) if there is a leak in one of the 4 air shocks
One shop told my wife it had a pin hole leak. ( after they installed a new compressor).
I took it to anothe place and they said the foud no leaks.
The compressor does seem to come on a lot, at least I think.

I am on the same boat..my left rear sags more than the other side...does that happen to you? My compressor turns on twice before and after I drive it right away

I would imagine you need to pump air into each line individually with a vacuum pump or something similar...would be great if you could use a fogger so then hole shows up haha

Not exactly.
I think it tends to be the left front, but not defintively so.
The compressor runs a lot ( and is new). not only when at start up , but during driving.
It will sit in the driveway and run from time to time.

Try soapy water on the bags and look for bubbles, just like when your tire leaks. Or let the system inflate and then shut off the switch under the passenger side dashboard. Wait, and then see if one corner is lower than the rest.
