Snaffoo · 10-17-2023, 08:41 PM

I am having an issue with the rear suspension in my 2017 X5 with third row seats. Recently, on a few occasions when I park, the rear suspension on both sides lowers. It only happens ever so often and it’s both sides at once. I know it’s the air bags deflating but not sure what is causing them to. I could understand if one was punctured it would lower, but both seems odd to go at the same time and again it’s only periodically. Could it be a relay or maybe compressor related?

Any suggestions?
