Jack in Norfolk Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 I have been told that the pneumatic suspension is bad and to avoid it because it is very expensive to replace. I have also read that it was only available on auto matics (at least on the GL10s) Is any of this true? -Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushbasher Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 it is expensive to fix, though some will last longer than others, they have nowhere near the lifespan of normal spring suspension. The bags can pop, lines can go, electronics can go etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack in Norfolk Posted November 22, 2003 Author Share Posted November 22, 2003 so is it true that they were only available on automatics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushbasher Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 in my experience yes. My 87 auto t-wagon had airbags but coils were put in. Every airbag car I've seen for sale has been automatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack in Norfolk Posted November 22, 2003 Author Share Posted November 22, 2003 and its my understanding that it isnt all that hard to switch from auto to 5 speed, right? does the trip computer still work if you do that switch? -Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
