I just bought a 2008 Armada and I have a couple questions. is the compressor supposed to be sort of loose? How often should it run? Should the bags on the air shock be deflated after sitting overnight? Thanks for any input you all have.

Nope, the bags should remain pressurized. The compressor should be tight, with a boot over the top of it. It should really only run once in a great while, or if you load the car up with a lot of weight (so it self-levels).

Sounds like you may have a leak somewhere.

Ok, thats what I thought, it has a boot over the top but rattles while running. Thanks for the response, that's what I was thinking too, but i just wanted to make sure.
