    Should air ride kick on without key

    I sit outside my church overnights securing all the stuff. And I just unlocked the alarm and sat down a few minutes later the air ride kicks on for a bit and then turns off. Is that normal?
    unrelated question….. which air conditioning setting pulls air from inside not outside air. Here in Los Angeles driving down road minding your own business you can easily get high from everyone around you. I always use inside air on my other cars but wasn’t sure on this one
    thanks

    Not sure on the air ride question (pretty sure it works constantly...), but to keep your inside air you need to use max ac that switches over to recirc air.

    The air ride has a hard setting, determined by the setting of the sensor located on the WATTS link. The car sets at that setting with nobody in it. You get in...sometimes it needs to pop on to adjust. You pick up a passenger...it might pop on again...to maintain the setting that the sensor has been set for.

    Capisce?

    Yes it is normal for the air ride to kick back on when you sit in the car, less than 1 hour after shutting the key off previously. I notice my higher mile marauders do tend to leak the air bag air out sooner, and that only makes the bags air up longer each time you go to drive it.. Fully functioning still.. I bought some bags on ebay, i bought some suncore bags, new, from suncore on ebay for 85.00 for 2 SHIPPED! https://www.ebay.com/itm/130607102228
