Go to www.alldatadiy.com. It costs $26.95 to get any info you need on your car for a whole year subscription. It's the same info the pro's use.

Use a soap water solution and put it in a spray bottle and spray all air suspension components. Where you see bubbles you have a leak.

It sounds as if one of your air lines has become separated...or more likely, the drier -- which sits up against the air compressor -- has probably come apart. This is not a terribly expensive part, and can be replaced relatively easily. Look for it under the hood. Good luck.
