davebugs Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Welcome to USMB. I guess you're in Europe somewhere? Please update your profile so we know what continent/country. If your cars are the same search here for "delayed forward engagement" as some folks here have done well with a miracle cure in a can fixing the delayed engagement on 99's. The air suspension I can't help you with but others probably can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davebugs Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 That was a specific brand that was working for those folks. To confirm does your trans have a spin on external filter? Somewhat up by the drivers front axle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shortysayhi Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 It sounds like your struts (inside the air bags suspension) have gone out. I am experiencing this in my gl10 and since they are factory sealed there's nothing you can do besides replace the whole unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afterbang Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 a buddy of mine had one of those first legacy wagons with ride height adjustment and the air suspension. he just ended up putting in some regular struts in there place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
