My front passenger side air strut doesn't rise up properly & it sits lower than the other struts (unbalancing the height of the car). The strut doesn't seem to be leaking any air, & my mechanic said it could be the electronic part on the strut which is broken. could that be the case? is it possible to test out the electrical part of the strut? In case its broken, does anyone know if is it possible to just swap it out with the electronic part from another strut (as i have a spare rear strut lying around)?
I am talking about the electronic bit which is on top of the strut (connected to it). I had my old strut replaced & apparently the top electronic part on the new strut didn't work & the mechanic swapped them around. The strut doesn't loose air, but it just doesn't rise up as much as the other struts & sits probably 3-4 cm lower than the driver side strut. I have something that resembles some sort of controller, but it never engages the compressors, so the only way i have been adjusting the car's height has been using the stock normal/ high button. I have an earlier post in the suspension section as well ... http://soarercentral.com/sc-forum/messages/30604/317753.html?1275269078
