Information
As of a mileage of 200, 000 km (125, 000 miles), it is recommended that the air springs be replaced on both sides of the axle if there is damage to one air spring.
If the vibration dampers are leaking, the complete air-spring strut must be replaced. The oil from the vibration damper can damage the convoluted air bellows.
When depressurized, the air spring must not be twisted. There is a danger that the convoluted air bellows inside the air spring will be damaged by bending or folding, thereby significantly reducing its service life.
