E90 seat side bolster leak?

So I’ve been playing around with some of my small things on the car that just don’t seem to quite work. The lumbar will inflate and stay inflated what seems to be permanently (working properly) but the side bolsters deflate relatively quickly like within 10 minutes maybe more have the back of the seat dismantled and everything looks like it’s in place nothing loose the pump doesn’t have a broken nipple. Can’t hear any leaks unless I’m deflating the system, could a valve system on its way out cause this? Oh it is both side bolsters not just one. And in the middle of checking the passenger side now.

So the driver side lumbar stays inflated does lose air but over night is still partiality inflated. Passenger side bolsters are flat after leaving over night.

My drivers side side bolsters starts lose air immediately after I fill them. Havent checked yet if I could find any leaks. Anyone know where leak would probably be?

My bolsters fill and stay filled for months at a time. Only reason I'm posting this is to show that a small leak, to any degree, is not normal operation and should be addressed. Good luck on your repair! I love my bolsters!
