IMO e-level is the best management system. The problems you probably hear about it are most likely due to installation error, not product quality.

E Level is Accuairs height based mgmt system as opposed to pressure based, it comes with sensor arms that can detect minor changes in height due to weight like extra passengers and can adjust back to ur preset height.

edit: agree install error if u have problems with it.

if it's pressure based, what kind of situation can cause a change in pressure? a leak or something?

I had e-level with airrex struts. It handled amazing, drove super smooth. I had a lot of issues with my elevel from leveling arms breaking, the module taking a crap after 9 months, and it constantly adjusting while driving in turn throwing my alignment out and eating tires. If I could go back I would've done airrex struts with v2 management for sure.

No bashing here but were the sensors mounted correctly? I do agree tho with the leveling Sometimes you have to adjust the sensitivity so it wont adjust as much...
