Testing compressor?
Thanks Don. Really appreciate this information, I did not know this;
it's good to know my air system is holding air acceptably. The
suspension does stay up, as does the air on the front/rear gauge. It's
just the aux air systems that bleed down fairly rapidly. I'm quite
pleased to hear this is normal.

So the problem, then, is just the front/rear (brake) tanks depleting
so quickly and taking so long to fill back up. Smile I'll bet the
mechanics find it pretty quick Friday. I brought the coach to them
once before and they did a great job.
