1. How long does it typically take to go from level 1 to level 2 (lowest to middle)?
2. Is there a good way to diagnose the airbag's condition?
3. The air compressor was a little noisy, is this normal? Like a loud fuel pump in the trunk.
THANKS!

the suspension system is a slow feed air system. The compressor feeds the storage tank. (not the air sprins).
Its the storage tank that feeds the air springs.
The compressor will only come on when the pressure inside the storage tank gets below a certian level.

when I first got to the car, the front was slammed (I'm guessing from not running). Is this an indication of an air leak in the bags?
It leveled out fine though.

for the door locks makes.
Is that normal? Can you hear a perfectly working compressor?
