petrolhead63 Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Having got the air suspension pump working again I still have the collapsing passenger side. It had not noticably done this before the pump failure but perhaps started doing it and provoked the pump to pack up if it was close to being clapped out. I would be interested to hear what experience of air springs people have and how long they last? I will be miffed if mine is duff.....its just over two years and 20K miles old.

M&S Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Mine is 6 years old, had one spring last year at 130,000 miles, the other is still on at 140,000 miles. There's no telling really though. It depends on a lot of factors. If your airbag was leaking a bit the compressor might have been working overtime to keep it up, and that's maybe why the compressor failed?
