I am trying to figure out if new bags actually offer any performance improvement over older bags.
I feel like they absorb better. There is a train track by our house that has always annoyed me each time I drove over it, I would hit my bump stops. I will report back after I can test drive it over those tracks.

My main issue was having the airbags deflate every now and then when the vehicle was parked. Never had an issue with the ride height function.

Coloboardi, may I ask the link to the airbag that you purchased? Am looking to buy one of the rear as mine also has a small leak. Thanks!
