  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

So I bought this gem from a friend who bought it new . From start he kept this car up and looking as good as it off the showroom floor . Love the car but of course just as any equus owner can contest to , front air struts could have used a little more thought and what it received from the engineers. So I looked around and wasn’t paying $1500 for two front struts and they say you have to change them both so I sprung for the conversion not happy with the conversion because the rear stays jacked up. It just doesn’t look right so I bought two new air struts put on it and no change. You can hear the pump running, but the rear just stays a lot higher up in the air and the front slammed has anyone run across this after replacing their air struts with air struts and how did you fix the problem?

Go to strut masters and change the air bags out for the shocks. I did that in my 13 ultimate and it’s still a great smooth ride.

I'm somewhat running into this problem too and I don't have any error codes, so it's very frustrating. The front isn't slammed, but the rear is really high. I have a bidirectional scanner that allows me to activate certain suspension settings, but I still can't get it to sit right again.
