I promise this is my last post concerning the air suspension on a 2007 Lexus GX470. I’m not the brightest bulb but the suspension works sometimes and sometimes it does not. Beats the hell out of me literally and mentally. I sold it to my son and feel some financial responsibility. It quit working Saturday and was bottomed out at 32” from ground to bottom of fender. Long story but I had to drive it to church about 30 minutes one way. Bottomed out the entire way. About 1/2 way back home it repaired itself and rode smooth as butter. I touched nothing. Got home and raised it to “H” and it raised right up. This morning it hadn’t leaked at all. Still at 37.5”. I have 2 repeatable codes. C1751 and C1761. I don’t understand if the bags are leaking, why they don’t leak down overnight??? My mechanic is not familiar with this air system. Do I just order some air bags and hope for the best? I’m using Gemini and it has helped. At this point I’m unsure which component is wonky.
It looks like the safest bet is to replace with coil springs. I guess I'd need new shocks as well.
