Question?!!!

Hey all,

couple of weeks earlier, i posted about airmatic and squeaking problem.
I sent my car to the shop, and it has been there for 3 days now.
The problem now is when i turn the car on it is suppose to automatically rise, but my car doesn't. The mechanic has been checking everything and he came up with the following:
it might be the air pump = it wasnt
it might be the hose = it wasn
now he said it might be the right valve = ???

any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

weirdest thing...i had the exact same squeaking thing, like it was a shock...but i knew that wasn't it. i could tel lthe noise was comming from the front, drivers side. i hcnged my oil, and used the jack on the front drivers side...been a month and no squeak...probably just a fluke, but i found it EXTREMELY weird....good luck let us know what it is though

Is the pump operating? If its on the car should raise. May be simple I had a relay that would work some of the time so change the relay and give it a minute to recognize. Hit the raise button at least 2x and cancel raise , raise again.
