Default Suspension Leak--Adaptive Air Suspension

model:
2004 A8L approx. 160,000Km

A little background before posting error codes.
Apatptive Air greyed out on 'lift' and 'dynamic'.
stiff rough ride--car low low to ground.
VCDS done. 3 faults at Address 34.
could here pump working then shutting off.
obviouslt the "LEAK" is causing all this.
coming from front left wheel is my suspicion as problems of 'list' started there.

QUESTION: "How to pin-point the leak ?"

Default

I cannot get the 3rd and last mounting bolt out.
I got first two out easy and the spring and washer that holds it it place just fell out.

I get to the last one, I get the bolt off--but the washer and spring don not come out
WD-40...
wait...
I can turn the bolt with my fingers but the washer is stuck to it or something.

Cant punch the bolt up and out.

Not sure what to do now.

Why is this one stuck ???
