  do you hear the pump running from under the back of the car? check fuses? and is it low on all 4 corners and is the suspension light on in the dash? this system is diagnosable with the right tester.

  I do not hear the pump running, but it is low on all 4 corners. Fuses are all good.

  have someone get the fault code from the suspension module. could be as easy as a sensor. was the car towed recently? flat beds ofter knock off the sensors when car gets tied down. have found an air hose chewed by a rodent too. a fault code would narrow it down.

  I had this same problem with my '98 Cadillac Deville. It would be fine at night when I parked and in the morning, it would be really low. My dealer told me it would be around $3500 to fix my air suspension! I checked around and found a company that makes parts to switch your suspension from air to non-air. I LOVE my car now, I don't have to deal with the air stuff EVER again, and it only cost me $800 to fix! Call Strutmaster.com! They have a LIFETIME warranty too! I'm very happy with my car and the money I was able to save.

  I have a Cadillac Deville and my air suspension went out on me. And the dealers price was too expensive and i went to Strutmasters.com and bought a conversion kit that eliminated the air and has a lifetime warranty so now i don't have to worry about it ever again.

  I highly recommend going to Strutmasters.com and getting a conversion kit. I did on my 2001 Audi. the Conversion kit eliminated the air and put my car back up to ride height and now i wont ever have another problem again! the kit i bought was 997.00 , and the ride is just as great! YOU WONT BE SORRY~ :)

• Leaks From Rear Air Springs
  Rear air springs (bellows) may develop leaks, which causes the air pump to run more often to maintain ride height. Our technicians recommend that leaking air springs be replaced.
