never ending 4.8is Air Suspension Nightmare

I have a 2005 x5 4.8is and have had endless trouble with my air suspension. I have replaced all 4 of the air bags in addition to the compressor. twenty minutes after leaving the dealership the "air suspenion inactive" notification lights up on the dashboard. I've now spent $5000 in hopes of finally repairing this air suspension issue but have had no luck. The first time the air supension failed, I was stopped at a red light. out of nowhere the front air suspenion bags popped like a ballon! My car was literally 1 inch off the ground. I replaced the 2 fronts, but then a few weeks later the same thing happened to the rear air suspension bags. At the moment my dashboard still gives me the air suspension inactive notification, but the ride hieght is somewhat normal. that being said, when i leave for work in the morning my car is usually lobsided like the leaning tower of pesa. has anyone had this problem/ any suggestions on how this problem can be solved?
