🟡 Monitor Closely

Air suspension on X5 E70 that sags overnight in cold weather but pumps up normally once running indicates a leak that is worse when components are cold and contract. The leak rate increases at cold temperatures as rubber air bags harden. Normal spring behaviour is maintained but a leak should be investigated.
