• Difficulty maintaining the required air pressure.

• Air leaks around compressor connections.

• Excessive oil carryover into the air system.

• Unusual compressor noise or vibration.

• Low-air-pressure warnings or frequent compressor cycling.

These symptoms can also be caused by leaks or other pneumatic system faults, so proper diagnosis is recommended.
