Air pressure leak

If I was a company driver, I would call breakdown and find out where they want it taken to. I would not work on company equipment myself. That could get you fired. Not mention you could void any warranty the truck my have.

Also, you probably should have mentioned this to the company as it probably could have fixed while you were at home.

 

What did the companies shop tell you?You being a company driver you need to get ahold of them ASAP.They'll probably send you to a Freightliner in your town.

 

Sounds like something you should be able hear if you can get somewhere quiet. Chock the wheels air it up good, release all brakes, put in drive, then turn it off and get out and start listening.

May be something simple. Maybe not.

 

Get a spray bottle. Fill it with water and a splash of Dawn dishwashing soap. Spray down the hoses and connectors. Leaks will bubble. If you can hear the leak, but can't quite find it, a length of rubber hose works well as a stethoscope.

I'm guessing you have something fairly major give out. Something like a blown cab air bag (the two small air bags at the back of the cab).

 

I just had the same problem. Same year & model.

 

Seems like the lines going to the transmission leak alot. And if it's not that they run alot of the air lines up over that transmission where it's hard to get at anything.

 

I know this is a bit old, but is that your truck?

Whoever invented push lock air fittings, or perhaps whoever decided that they have a place on a truck, should suffer a miserable death. Just my opinion.

 

I agree on the push lock fittings. Next to useless.

That picture was from the Freightshaker Century Classic I used to drive. I now own a KW T2000, the one with the nice stainless steel bumper...you know, lipstick on a pig.
