The compressor faults every time I drive. Sometimes after a minute sometimes five. Once it faults ther is no changing suspension height. Shut the truck off and back on and I can raise and lower until I start driving. Ive read about some fixing by replacing a $70 filter. Apparently it's...

Anyone have thoughts on new brake bed in? just drive easy for 500 miles? or do a racing type burn in with multiple high speed braking episodes, and cooling period? i realize every pad / rotor set up would be different but as I can't find any info on the brake pad manufactures website, any imput...
