Title: Air leak passenger side
Post by: Hurshel Haley on May 25, 2013, 12:52:35 AM

Have read several suggestions on Forum, may have missed similar problem.  Only my passenger side goes down usually 3 days where do I START LOOKING?  Thanks for the replys, and sorry for not giving complete info. Our coach is a 2001 Beaver Marquis Tourmaline.  The coach only seems to leak down on the passenger side front and rear. Thanks again..

Check to verify it is not just 1 corner that is dropping. Focus on the air bags and lines from the bags to the distribution valve, usually mounted on a cross member behind (toward center of coach) the axles. A spray of  water and dish detergent is pretty good at finding leaks. Also spray valves and tank fitttings. If it takes 3 days, it is probably a pretty small leak.

Leakdowns like that are common on these rigs.  If you are camped and air-leveled using the automatic feature, your auxilliary compressor should have kicked in occasionally to keep you level.  But those compressors commonly fail.  You did not post your year and model, which would help members here give appropriate input.
