This could help anyone who wants to cut down a huge percentage of maintenance. Look into purchasing an electric drain kit. I got mine from bag riders. The way my system was set up I had to climb into my backseat with a rag every time I wanted to drain the tank. That got old for me fast. With an electric drain kit, it comes with an electronic valve release, a button, and an air hose. Simply splice it into a 12v power source and place the button within reach in your cabin. Mine is to the lower left of my steering wheel. The electric valve connects to the tank and the other end has a hose ran from it that leads to the outside of the vehicle. Press the button and it purges water from the tank and dumps it outside. I can press it anytime whether I'm driving or not. I've had people approach me and ask If I have a NOS purge system in my car when they hear it lol. Huge QOL improvement. I have a water trap installed as a filter and to monitor the condensation but whenever I go to drain it - it's as dry as a bone.
I had a problem with my front right leaking too. The shop that installed it wasnt the best. So far everything has been great since I got it installed in January functionality wise. I fixed the leaking issue by using soapy water and spraying the front right suspension. The connector running to the bottom of the assembly just needed to be tightened a hair more. Also, if you guys get your bags installed by a shop, check the damper settings on each of the suspension towers. Mine were all outve wack. Edit: Consider a 2 compressor setup under the floor of the trunk. My shop kept my spare in there by relocating the tools.
So what is all of the parts that you need for air suspension? Front and rear bags are sold separately but what else? I’m just now getting into bags and stuff so idk alot
Nice review! Have been watching your video before I decided to get my own kit. Just got my 3H and had a shop did the install because I was too afraid. After the install, height sensor collapsed so will have the shop fix it again. Now I just turned off height sensor and use pressure based to control the car only. I have a few questions and was wondering if you can help me out since this is my first air suspension: 1. What is your pressure setting on your front and rear? How about damper setting? I find my car rubbing in the front sometimes and the height is inconsistant with the pressure. (ie, sometimes front bags are set to 110 Psi and will have 1 finger gap , but sometimes it will have 2???) 2. When you air up to drive, does the pressure always go to exact preset value? Mine will always be off. 3. Does your front tire sit on your fender tab when you air out? Thanks!
Front I have it at about 115 and rear 80 I have the same problem when airing it up at first then it will adjust. And no I don't think it has ever been the exactly the same it's always off unless I manually do it. And my front tab did with my stock fenders so it would rub a bit.
Man I way in the checkout just before you played the compressor. Looks like I'll be going with Coilovers + air cups. The compressors should only be running for a very short time.
Your Z looks good man. Nice build. Thanks for this video. Thinking a lot on converting the Q50 but need to make sure I get a bleeder. Due to a lot of moisture here in Florida. That’s the number one complaint I here from those who have them here in Orlando.
Been riding on air for a year now no problems and I live in ohio and our winters are bad. Actually to sum it up this state is on crack yesterday was 80 and today it was snowing. Imagine that. Anyways no issues other than sometimes when I air out it’ll bounce acouple times which is weird. I re calibrated and it fixed it but yeah.
@@Chrizleyva thanks for the reply I’m debating on going with airlift or super lows but didn’t know if when low it’ll be bouncy on airlift. I appreciate it

Confused how this channel only has over 2k subs the quality is worth much more
Thank you 🙌 I just have to be consistent
Finally a true review . Like how you noted most problems from you not the system.
So what is all of the parts that you need for air suspension? Front and rear bags are sold separately but what else? I’m just now getting into bags and stuff so idk alot
You need the tank, airlines, managment which usually Somes with the wiring, compressors, fittings

I moved the compressors under where the tire is and not as bad but can still here it

Good vid, I learned something new today. Air suspension is loud as hell... but only for a few seconds.
Thank you 🙌 and yeah its not that loud for other cars depending where its at.
This was very helpful! I appreciate you!
Thank you 🙌🙌
Are you from Cali I am having issues on my air suspension

@@Chrizleyva got it done in 2 days
When you are driving low is it bouncy?
No not really it is stiffer but not bouncy
@@Chrizleyva thanks for the reply
