Because the ride quality feels just as crashy and bouncy as coilovers.
Handling is shit because you have to remove your front ARB.

If you don't want to go that low and you want it to still handle well, then I'd suggest you don't spend big money on air when it won't suit your needs.

And tbh, It does cause a lot of bother with reliability, mine leaks air all the time and the compressor keeps blowing fuses. It also dropped itself to the ground at 50mph and has a mind of its own.

Quite amazed by the above comments..


Anyone wanting air ride this is NOT the case...

I'm running accuair switchspeed on my rocco now 100% perfect , Did you fit the suspension DIY by any chance?

Yes, with help from a guy who does it for a living.

Me and a mate fitted mine in 2 days.. , You should always leave it another 2 days on full heigh to test for leaks then find and wipe them out..

i fitted mine in 2 days also. Eventually bought my own fittings instead of the shit that Plush sold me and now it holds all pressure overnight.

I've got 0 leak in PSI after changing one fitting valve , Also having had coils before the ride is much better and less crashy depending on what height you drive at.

what pressures do you run at ? Mine feels shit at any height

Also you're fuses are blowing because they aren't the right amp you need a higher power one., I've had mine in 2 months without a single one blowing.

no, your wrong. I'm an electrician and I understand how they work. I've used the 30A fuse from the kit. Th compressor shouldn't draw anymore than 18A. I've checked for faults and everything is fine. So my compressor is just overloading.

Arb does have to be removed as said but you can drive the car so low that theres no near for an arb as theres 0 body roll, My rocco's running close to 300bhp and hugs to road like its on tracks!

Dropping to the ground i'm assuming is something to do with you're mangment and how it's fitted so can't help on that front im afraid , Either that or you put an air line close to something and it's cut through.

no I think I'd know if I burst a line, I'm no that daft. It's because the controller is digital and does what it wants most of the time.


All in all i find 90% of what you said untrue im afraid , But opinons are there to be cast.
