WTF, went to go to work this morning and compressor kept raising the car so now I have a foot or more between the tire and wheel well! I just had those bags replaced a few weeks ago. bmw checked out everything with the compressor etc and said it was good to go. now I have to figure out how to let the air out and get it to where I can drive it until the 10th when I can fix the other problems. since November. valve cover gaskets, coolant expansion tank and hoses. spark plugs and boots, air filter, new tires, laser alignment, both air bags for suspension, drivers side door handle, and within the last two weeks the original problems as noted in the first post, the key battery has died and the lift gate shocks have gone bad....

update. I deflated the bags so it sits about normal. pulled the fuses so the compressor won't jack it way up again. as per my original problem need a clutch fan and awaiting a diagnosis on performance loss. I should find out on the 10th.

I would almost bet on the fan causing the drag on the motor . Very easy to remove reverse thread tho

update. after a new fan clutch, relays, fuses, and resetting/training the throttle she seems almost back to normal. also did a re-sync on the key and replaced the lift gate struts.
