My air ride on the front of the car works sometimes and sometimes it dosent, the car sits for days at a time and the front end never drops, I dont think its the air bags because it dosent do it all the time, but their are times when the front end just drops and it lifts back up 2 seconds later and ideal what will cause this, I dont think it is anything major any ideals will be helpful.

From what you've described, it sounds like a teckbook air suspension leak. Replacing the air spring(s) should fix your problem. BTW, the air bladders on those are only 2 mm thick. They will ALWAYS leak the worst when the car is driven and when its cold.

The dealer wants $200+ each for these, but you can get them aftermarket with a LIFETIME WARRANTY for approx. $80.
