first its AWESOME AND I LOVE IT - definitely worth the $$$$$$
so heres the small issues
--front driver bag is losing about a pound of prerssure every 30 seconds
the other bags are completely staying level - luckily the auto level fixes it like every 5 minutes... i already texted my installer were gonna check it out tomorrow
--When i dump my car all the bags goto 0 psi.. except the right rear bag still read 35 - 45psi??? if i hold down the dump... it will goto zero, as soon as i let go of the button it goes back to like 35 - 45? BUT it doesnt like AIR up... it simply just reads like 35 psi.. im thinking that particular valve is still letting some pressure back in... not sure if its install related or valve related... shall check that out tomorrow too
--When I air alllll the way up... all the bags goto 144 - 146 psi... but the right rear again wont go over 138 - 141???
--my compressors only fill my tank to 184PSI - i thought they were 200 psi compressors... if i dump my car.. i dont have enough to fill all the bags COMPLETELY up .. i have to wait, then it will air up more... if it would goto 200 instead of 184 i believe i could air all the way up... what do your guys's air compressors compress up too?
-- and also are your sensors 150psi rated? mine dont read anything over 150 psi... or maybe that doersnt matter cuz the bags only hold that much ? nada sure...
i believe these are all minor issues to be worked out which were also completely expected... especially the first day its driven... i figured id notice something faster than anyone else.
thanks guys! let me know!

Simans summed it up pretty good, but I'll through in a couple cents on the issues I have experience with.
Front driver bag losing pressure is a leak. You just have to locate the leak.
Your right rear reading 35 - 45 psi sounds like a faulty valve. It might be letting air from the tank flow slowly through the valve to the bag. It doesn't air up because the valve only allows 45 psi flow and that isn't enough pressure to left that hemi.
Right rear not going up to the same pressure as the other bags could be a few things. But I would bet there are no problems. Sometimes the road or the angle of your car will change the pressure.
The rated 200 PSI pressure switch is an estimate I think. My car would never lift all the way on the first lift. I used to have to wait until the pumps shut off before I could left it to the max. I can lift it all the way now because of the nitrogen.
And as Siman mentioned, Dakota Digital has an upgrade sendor for up to a 400 PSI reading.
Glad to hear your loving your air though. Lets see some pix.
