I have a 40 foot 2002 Monaco Diplomat that I have just recently purchased.
Now that it is put away for the winter I have noticed that after a week or so the air pressure is dropping and the chassis is now sitting down low, i.e. no air in air bags.
Is there an easy way to trace for a loss of air while it is just sitting?
Should I just leave its as is and deal with it in the spring?
Will sitting on the frame do any damage to the air bags?

Inside the airbag there are supports so not a problem when they deflate. Doubt you could find that small a air leak so be happy and do not worry. The airbags deflating is usually a Oring problem in the HWH 6 pack valves.
That's considered very good. Most of our coaches leak down in a day or two (at least one tank, if not both).
You can make a mixture of soap and water and spray all the air fittings and valves to see where it bubbles (leaks). Small leaks are still hard to find (best to use specialty "leak detection solution" (google it or see amazon) or the kind of bubble solution used by Kids to "blow bubbles" as it lasts longer and shows up better on the small leaks.
