Hello all,
I took my 2014 ram limited into the dealership because the air suspension would deflate sometimes over night or when I parked the truck. It doesn’t seem to have constant pattern when the bags completely deflate. Some mornings they are full and some the truck is on its bump stops. When I start the truck it lifts up and has no issue driving and holding air. It is always low on both sides and never sagging just on one. I was told by the dealership that both rear bags have small pin holes and it would be a $3500 fix to replace them both. I just find it weird that both bags seem to leak at the same rate and it’s always both.
Does anyone have any insite on this? Is the system designed that if one leaks both sides lower? Is it possible that there is a line leaking rather than the bags? Just trying to make sure the dealer isn’t trying to do more work than necessary and be sure both need to be replaced. The diagnostic is not cheap to take it for a second opinion so I’m not too sure if I should do that. Is there any simple tests I can do or look at to see where the leaks may be?
Any info on this issue is helpful.
Thank you all I’m advanced.
