Rear airmatic reservoir / container - how to fix a leak?

Problem: My car sit's on the rear right side after a night in the garage..
Fault finding: The air reservoir is leaking air...one way or another...(the pump & spring is OK..)





How to fix?

Plan A) ...assume the leak is at the hose connection...can I repair / seal off this area while having the reservoir still installed?

Plan B) ....go for the ultimate solution i.e. replacing the reservoir/container...can this be done w/o lowering the rear axle...

Anyone with experience fixing / replacing a leaking reservoir? All suggestions and recommendations are greatly appreciated.

Replace both sides with and Arnott units. Arnott units do not require reservoirs.

I don't see how it can leak fron the hose since it's ultra sealed from the factory. It even seems to use some glue. In my case it was the valve inside the bellow that would get stuck open. Swap to arnotts.

rezervuarsız taktırmayın sakıncalı lastik değiştirmek için veya tamirde lifte kaldırdıklarında airmaticleriniz yuvasından çıkar ve yere indiğinde patlayabilir rezervuar sürekli basıncı dengeler ve hava boşalmayacagı için airmatic yerinden çıkmaz ve sorun oluşturmaz
