Wow, From looking at all the posts the air ride system on all older models is a real pain. Has any one replaced the system with struts? I got a 91 for my son, new driver. Now it's DDAAAAD my car is sitting on the ground. I have only had it for a month and love it but with older cars I knew things were going to go bad, so far the starter, alternater, and battery have been replaced. Anyway so my question is "Will a bag leak on one side make them all go bad or do you think its a compressor problem?" I have tried the obvious "giggle the switch and check the fuses" out side of that until I pick up a Chiltons I don't know. Can Anyone advise me please. :L

:W to :V :Beer I wish that i could help you with your problem, Iconverted my continental from air ride to coil spring struts if you are thinking about that there are vendors listed here on this web site that can help you.

Thanks I like the way yours looks. I know I can figure this out, it's cheaper to replace with strts have you had any trouble with them and were they easy to install?

Well I changed out my 1996 continental air ride for struts/springs, last week. The front struts and rear springs were $600.00 from strutmasters and the whole job took me about 5 hours, this included stopping for lunch and a few breaks. Ride is firmer & the car handles better. I miss the soft air ride but not the trouble that goes with it. All in all I would do it again. Strutmasters was easy to order through and the suspension arrived in 3 days. If you need tech support don't call on Saturday as I found out, they arn't there. Get the conversion kit it's worth the money and anyone
with some basic tools can do this.

you can go that rt or i say stick with airride man
that just my vote i have a 95 continental and i say stick with airide man
