I have a Lexus SC400 Limited and I have recently noticed that if the car has not ben used a few days the front seems to drop a little. I suspect that I may be loosing air from the strutts. I notice that there are a number off threads about replacing the air strutts with coil over units. I am wondering if this is the way to go and the timing of doing the work. Any advice. Peter

Buy some second airbags from here. With coilovers, if you get the good ones it is great. If you get the wrong ones (as I did) it is a disaster and a waste of money. It is really up to you and what turns you on.

Look into purchasing new airbags from NZ. Remember most of these units are over 20 years old, while the air bag may be perfect the shockers are usually stuffed.

Thanks for all the info. It would appear that the right front is the worst for sagging. Just wondering if I have an air leak. I would like some information about the contact in N.Z.
