XJR 2005 Air Suspension

I'd had a saggy offside front corner for a while now and decided to get it fixed. Searched round for options for a replacement Strut.
I gave the job to my Local Honest Mechanic and he replaced the Strut for me. I collected the car and on the way home noticed a new noise from the same corner.
It gets worse...the following morning it was down on that corner again. I took the car back to LHM and left it with him. It was up on the Ramps when I called back. This model has 3 level sensors-all 3 on the other wheels. His current theories are that it could be a leak on the piping to that Strut or the fault is in fact from the opposite rear corner which he thinks is high. He's going to squirting soapy water on the pipes / connections he can see.
The noise I mentioned will probably be gone when we get back on the road. We have fitted the original bolt at the base of the Strut instead that supplied with the kit. It's a tighter fit.
I'm keeping the original Strut as a spare. The Pump has been cleaned and is working fine.
Has anybody been down this road and found a solution.
I would like to see a pipework schematic to isolate the pipework for this leg.
Thanks in advance for any help. Excuse any issues from my first post.
