You might need new airbags! Or something could be wrong with your lines on one or more corners... find the diagnostics port in the boot and have a play with a paperclip. It'll help you determine which corner you're having problems with, or if it's the pump that requires attention. Use the following instructions, stolen from elsewhere within the forum:

*****

In the left hand side of the boot, below the On/Off switch, behind the panel, right at the bottom is a square plastic test point connector that the dealership use to test the Air Suspension system.

There are 2 rows of pins, one pin is earth and one pin a 12v supply.

The others are for energising each of the solenoids that provide the air from the pump/reservoir to each shock so 1 pin for supply and one for earth for each.

There is 1 pin for the pump to start 12v and also one pin again 12v to open the vent.

So you can from this connector using a couple of wire links jumper the 12v and the earth as necessary and start or stop the pump, or energise any corner solenoid, or vent any corner.

This can be very handy, especially for finding problems.

The chaps air leaking sounds like its coming from the pressure relief/regulator.

This stops the tank getting too much pressure if the pump simply ran all the time.

Pin 1 is Battery
Pin 2 is Right front solenoid
Pin 3 is Left front " "
Pin 4 is Right rear "
Pin 5 is Left rear "
Pin 6 is the vent solenoid.
Pin 7 is +12v to turn pump on
pin 8 is earth
Pin 9 goes to the ECU

And.

Pin 1 to 7 and 5 the pump starts and rear Left goes up
remove from 7 and into pin6 and pump stops and down goes the rear left.
