Hey ... I'm just glad you posted this in case I have the same problem in the future!

NP, chances are, you will prob have the failure eventually. My right side deflates very quickly if I park the car in the lowest setting (takes an hour to deflate) but if I leave it in the middle setting, it will take about 1-1.5 days to deflate.

My car kneels too (front right)! I'm tired of it looking all crooked when parked, or it not resetting to proper ride height when driving/starting it fast enough. I also don't want to work the compressor too much. Ill be ordering these shocks within the week I think. And Im probably getting them installed at "german car shop" in NJ- I got the name from this site so Im guessing its a good place to go, right?

I am traveling in the same boat, can you please tell us if you end up buying from them if yes did you install it yet???? how is it? i need pass side asap.

Just like the factory one. can't beat the price and lifetime warranty. Get them!

I may also be needing one of these. Two weeks ago, I found the front driver side of my car sitting low. When I started her up, it goes back to normal. Then I leave it for three days and it stays up. But the other morning, I find it low again after sitting overnight. If there's a leak, shouldn't it consistently sit low after sitting overnight?

It's the beginnig of the end for that strut. That's how it always starts. Mine did that too. Just wait til it becomes consistently flat. Well, I suggest you fix before it gets like that. If it deflates when you drive then you really have an issue.

I recalibrated my ride height on Easter Sunday and left the car in the garage. Been sitting two days now and it hasn't sunk (yet). I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

I might have the same problem too. In my case my left rear passenger side sinks on and off overnight and when I click open my remote door lock,the rear starts to go back to its normal height.

I drive a 2002 E53 3.0d euro..........
