The self-leveling suspension doesn't seem to work the way it should. We got it to work on the way home from the dealership, but not since. It will "pump up" but then will not stay up on the driver's side.

Why is this happening and what is the fix?

Thanking you in advance for your time and consideration.

PS - we also have an engine tap that seems worse while idling. Any ideas on that problem as well?

Oil pressure is lower at an idle. Make sure the oil is full and clean. You may need to check it with a mechanical gauge.

As far as the air ride, has the check engine light come on? If not, it sounds like there is a leak in the system.
