The rear drivers side of my GT seems to sag a little bit overnight. If there is a load in the back it goes really low. Once car is started it levels right back up. It may have done this all along and I just now noticed it - not sure. Do you think the air suspension is malfunctioning?

Yes,

Its time to replace both bags would highly recommend replacing with Arnold bags they are far superior to BMW standard bags and ride allot better. If you wait the bags will eventually give out and they put allot of wear on your compressor which is another few hundred to replace.
