Is my 2018 X5 driveable?
I’m out of town 500 miles from home and my vehicle decides to have a suspension issue. Right rear is sagging so that’s my guess.
Has anyone ever driven the car in this condition or is it doa? Thanks |

depends on how bad it is. Does it sag overnight, or you run into starbucks and when you come out it has sagged. Most likely bag has a slow leak and it would be driveable back home. If its a big tear, the compressor will run full time and burn out.

I would recommend not driving on it.
Sounds like a leaky airbag, if you drive and it keeps trying to fill, you might wear out the air compressor.. My suggestion; find a shop tomorrow, and get a new airbag or two installed. |
