    I have a 2000 Century. I would be looking at the air bags at full pressure.
    How fast do you lose pressure when you shut down bobtail? Should be good for an hour or so.
    Good luck.

    air drier maybe, but probably in the air ride bad bag, valve etc
    Try dumping the air bags and see if it builds then
