Sorry for another Airmatic thread.
I remember researching Airmatic failures prior to getting the E55. I thought I remembered an issue with air lines rubbing against the fender liner as a possible "other" airmatic issue.
I'm pretty sure my passenger front strut failed last night (the high pitched hissing when it went actually woke myself and the dog up from sleeping). but I wanted to make sure it wasn't something simple like a line first. Problem is I can't find any threads related to anything other than struts failing when I search around now.
Can anyone point me to the treads with air supply line issues so I can check that prior to having it towed to the dealer.
This will be the first time I've had to use my Easy Care warranty. But if it's something simple I'm stubborn enough to just fix it myself to avoid the down time.

No kidding, while it was just sitting there in the garage. Thats pretty pathetic.
I did hit a pot hole with that right side like a month ago that I suppose could have contributed...but I figured if there were issues they would have shown up sooner. No other damage but only real notable event that I can think of either. Only 38K miles on the car.

One of mine failed today. Sounded like a cat in a blender. Amazing screech.
