Air suspension

Thinking of replacing the rear air suspension bags (if that's what they are called) what make would you guys recommend and what about the sensors should I replace them would they be main dealer only. I have no leaks it just sits a little low on one side at the rear.

+1 For Arrnot. Just put in a front one and no issues. Will likely be using for rears when the time comes.

I put the arnotts on a clients car a month or two ago. They work great. I have 2 front arnotts on mine.

Mr Q
If you have no leaks, then your bags are fine. Changing them will not correct the level of the vehicle. You can take your car to the dealer or an Indy and they can calibrate it for you for less than the cost of one air bag. While they are calibrating the vehicle, they can also check for any error codes.
