BMW 730d Front Air Spring Failure — Corner Sag
The self-levelling air suspension on E65/E66 uses air springs at all four corners. Front air springs develop leaks at the rolling lobe rubber or air line connections, causing one corner to sag overnight. An SLS warning light illuminates and the car may be difficult to drive on the bump stops. Replacement springs cost £200-400 each.
