<p>[QUOTE="Rockslyde, post: 11600849, member: 234637"]Hey, I got my truck back from the dealership a couple of days ago. First day, they couldn't figure it out. Checked for leaks, found none.

(Yeah right) It didn't fix the problem. They tested the compressor and found that it was functioning properly. Called Bendix again and was told to replace the main air line from the compressor to the dryer. (At that point what else could it be, right?) Bingo. Problem solved. Air line was about $130.00 . </p><p>I had sprayed that line looking for a leak and so did the guys at Kenworth. I didn't see any bubbles, but apparently something about the old line was bad.
