Reserve air requests any 2 minutes

Hello everyone
then my problem is this.
the suspensions are blocked, reading with iidtool error it signals me tank filling speed slow
practically the compressor works, whe removed and try no problem.
central valve replaced with pressure sensor no problem.
checking the live values with iidtool, the air tank opens every 2 minutes, constantly asking for air.
this causes the system to lock up.
the air tank has not been removed, but we do not feel any leaks either with the engine running or with the engine off.
the air demand from the reserve air tank is too cyclical ... any ideas?
Thank for your help

Could be an airbag that has a leak. The car uses tank air to fill it back up and empties the tank very quickly.

Try to put the car in offroad mode somewhere quiet, stop the engine and put your ear next to every wheel and listen for a hissing sound. If the leak is bad you should be able to hear it.

If it's not very bad you can still find it with soapy water sprayed on the airbags and looking for bubbles. Be sure to use a mirror to check behind the bag as well, that is where I found a problem with mine.

If the problem is the rubber airbag you can try to put a can of Slime flat tire fix in the airbag to see if it seals up the leak. It worked for me more than a year ago and it is still ok.
