Default auto-level warning light could be airbags?

Dealership is claiming the auto leveling warning light is related to bad suspension airbags, but no other air bag symptoms have been witnessed by me.

Search of the forum doesn't lead me to believe this warning light would be impacted by the suspension airbags, but makes sense it would be right?

Default when I've had leaks, the self leveling light has come on....

if the suspension drops below level one when parked. The car's then inflated the suspension, and the light's gone out. The light has also come on when my compressor was going and was timing out.

Default In my experience the light only came on when the bags were bottomed out at start up or the compress-

or overheated.

Default Auto level light came on last week without any indication of sagging at level 2.

It dropped to level 1 but refused to go back up. Turning the ignition off and imediately back on, the compressor kicked in and everything worked fine with no light. Whatever it was/is, it's not a suspension/air strut problem.

Default hmmm... I noticed no sagging or anything.

We'll see what they come back with. I bet it is a loose connection or something.

Default Is it just the a-l warning light, or the ESP + _____ as well?

I had the same problem, and it was the brake pedal switch.

Not sure if this helps any though. T
