Default Uh oh, my turn

Si yesterday my baby turned 100K, and as I walked out after work I noticed the left front had drooped an inch (I measured). Started the car, suspension leveled and I drove home. Normally I leave it on level 1 but last night I left it on level 2 and no sag. At work today I tried leaving it on level 1 again and, yup you guessed it, sag.

Any chance it's a switch problem with the lowest setting (I know, wishful thinking), sticky valve, etc... or am I looking at a new airbag?

If it's new airbag time, is the shock integral to it? Should they be replaced in pairs? Any advice here, I like the car and want to keep it for a few years yet.

seems like the exact same thing that happened to me. after a while leaving it on setting 2 won't even help it stay up. It's an airbag replacement

That might work, I'll let you know soon. Wife just came out with idea yesterday. She may be getting a car that's better for commuting and I'll inherit her Phaeton. We would sell the Allroad if that's the case.

Can you give me an idea of how much for your airbags? PM if you like.
