BMW E53 Self Level Suspension Problem Help

Problem:

Several weeks ago I had a blown Left Rear Airbag, replaced it and everything was fine for about 1 week. Side Note: One of the black clips broke on re-install at the fitting where the reservoir connects to the air bag, it still fit fine and snug.

After about 1 week I would get "self level suspension inactive" on the dash, BUT the airbags filled after about 5min of driving. So I was able to continue using the vehicle.

I received the INPA software and cable and wanted to see what the issue was. Upon connection, the reservoir was somewhat full and all the air bags were able to manipulated with the software (raise and lower the front/rear) . I clicked the fill reservoir function and it filled up but the compressor got hotter so I turned the fill option off. A few minutes later I was having the issue outlined in this video.

Is the compressor shot? What are the next steps. I am on the verg of biting the bullet and going to the dealer.
