Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Rear Air Suspension Went Out - Airbag Have Leak

So my rear air suspension just went out, I'm assuming that my air bags have a leak or a hole because the air compressor shut its self off. I'm thinking of just getting rid of the air system completely and just putting on some good shocks and leveling it out.

Ford Excursion :: 2004 - Rear Springs Worn Out And Sagging

My Ex has a ProComp 6" lift that was installed in 2004 (it's an 03) and it seems that the rear springs are worn out and sagging. I'm assuming the lift used the stock springs and blocks. I haven't measured but I'd say the rear is 1" - 2"s lower in the back. Question is should I replace the springs with stock ones? Maybe get springs that'll give me some lift and remove the blocks? Airbag it?

Ford Brakes/Suspension :: Airbag Setup Sagging With 75 Psi?

This is my issue I have a set of Firestone airbags with The 2.5in leveling kit with 35in trail grappler. I haul a 36ft toyhauler weighing 12k loaded with a hitch weight of 1340lbs. And with 75psi in the air bags it still sagging even tho theSprings aren't even being used.

I plan on buying a sxs and putting it in my truck bed. I can only imagine having 1300lbs in the bed and towing the trailer.

My question is should I go back to stick size tires and take the leveling kit off? Or do I have other options? Maybe thicker Springs or add a leaf?

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Rear Suspension Airbag - Height Control Is Inoperative

I own a 2004 GX470 and am recently having issues with my rear airbag. The height control is inoperative and the bags will not fill completely and lift the rear.

I went under the car and found the bumpstops are a few centimeters off the rear axle.

What could cause the height control to not function? Could it be the height sensor, airbag, etc? I could hear the air compressor turn on so do not think that is an issue.

Volvo - 850 :: 1995 - Sagging Rear Bumper

My daughters 95 Volvo 850 had a sagging rear bumper. I prchased new mounting brackets and removed the bumper. It turned out the brackets were for a 5 door, and her car is a 4 door. I returned to the dealership and was told that they can only get the left side bracket and that the right side bracket is no longer available. The brackets look nearly the same except the mounting holes are opposite. I went ahead and ordered two left side brackets. I am hoping to be able to drill holes in one of them to fit it on. The bumper is now off the car and the old brackets are rusted to nothing.

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: RX350 Left Rear Strut Developed Leak And Started Making Noises

I have a 2009 RX350 with 51,000 miles (just 1000 over warranty). The left rear strut developed a bad leak and has begun making the noises associated with the failed strut. I will be changing out both rears and have two questions that I cannot find info for on the web.

1) I noticed the 2 latches on the side covers inside the back area to remove the panel and expose the rear strut tower, are these the only two latches I need to remove to access the upper bolts, or are there hidden screws or things I need to do to remove the panel?

2) What are the torque specs for the rear strut bolts?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Truck Pulls And Stops Great But Rear Suspension Is Sagging

I know this has been discussed but I still don't understand. Hence my "dumb blonde" user name.

I just purchased a 2013 super duty f350 extended crew cab DRW.

I also purchased a 42 foot (box is 36) Goose neck Bison LQ horse trailer. Trailer weight is 12048 and tongue weight is 4468. Fully loaded I am about 18,500.

Truck pulls and stops great but it is obvious the rear suspension is sagging.

Now what? Do I need air bags? Timbren? Spring Coils? I have called several installers and they all say something different.

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: 2007 RX350 - Airbag Lights Comes On Once In A While

My parents have a 2007 RX350 and they had the airbag light come on once in a while. I have the car right now so I could figure out the issue for them and get it fixed.

The light wouldn't come on for the first couple days and it off today for a while until I move the seat fully backward and then forward. After I restarted the vehicle the light came on.

I got to work and tried tightening all connectors under the seat and the light did go off and stay off but I didn't drive it after that.

When the light is on it blinks in the 1-second on / 1-second off pattern. When my dad's friend-mechanic checked it out, he said that the description of the code he could read was something like "open [squib] circuit connector", unfortunately, he can't remember.

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: Airbag Light Blinks In The Dashboard

I have a problem with Airbag light - it blinks in the dashboard. The dealer turned it off twice (by connecting their computer) but it came back again. I'm pretty sure (and the dealer thinks the same) the problem is related to wiring because the light does not blink sometimes. And, when it does not blink, sometimes it starts blinking again, especially when I drive fast and make a "sharp turn" (hope that makes sense).

So far, I only know the faulty airbag is in the driver's seat (the dealer told me so). Since they turn the light off and it comes back again later, they suggest me leaving the car in the service, so they can remove the driver's seat and check the issue.

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: Airbag Light On The Dash Always Remain Lit

I have a 2007 RX400h. All of a sudden I see the airbag light on the dash and the passenger airbag off light always lit. It does not matter whether I am sitting in the passenger seat or not. I should easily weigh enough to turn on the passenger air bag.

I have a basic OBDII scan tool. It does not show any error codes.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: GX470 Airbag Light On - Cluster Stays Sometimes On Then Off

I have 228,000 miles on my wonderful GX 470. Love it!! Very Few Problems. My Airbag Light on the Cluster stays ON sometimes and sometimes is OFF. There is no consistency. I will be driving and the light will come ON and stays ON. And then, it will stay OFF for few drives. Why the light would sometimes come ON?
