X5Cat is on a distinguished road
FYI everyone, also available at arnottindustries.com, $205 + shipping, I think. They have an installation video on their site. I bought a set from them a few years ago for my old e53 and was very pleased. Aging air springs will seem to work okay for a while at times, but then if they get low on air or get in a certain position, the air will leak out through the cracks in the aging rubber. Once they get totally deflated and "folded" the cracks open up wider and they will be difficult to inflate, until you jack up or take load off of them, allowing rubber to straighten out and temporarily seal the cracks. I remember some write ups back in the e53 section which discussed this.
