2017 F85 Rear Air Suspension Leak/Drop?
Hi all, drove my car yesterday morning and went to drive it again today and noticed that my rear driver's side suspension seems to be lowered for some reason. I have stock suspension, no aftermarket changes have been done.
Attached some images to show the difference between the left and right side (please don't judge me for the curb rash on the wheel). View post on imgur.comI've seen a few other threads about the same topic, so it doesn't seem to be an uncommon issue. Hoping to get an appointment at my local BMW dealer and that it is covered under CPO warranty. Will report back my findings.

If you vehicle is sagging in the rear, you will need to replace your rear air bags. I just had this done to my X5M. I did a write up on another thread, you can look for it.

Please ask bmw to change bags on both sides. Hopefully CPO warranty will cover both sides. If one side is leaking other side will also leak pretty soon.

Update, got them repaired, took about 2 days for them to do the work. Attaching the dealer service work order if for some reason that interests people.
