For a 'quick-fix' repair of leaks down at the air strut, see video. Put on subtitles, some extra info there:

In relation to the video: in some cases, the aluminum ring on the shock absorber is so damaged that it should be replaced. Only changing/cleaning o-rings will not then help much in the long run. Please note that the shock absorber must then be detached from the nut at the top. The ring does not go over the bolt hole at the bottom of the strut.
For how to detach the shock absorber itself from the air suspension, please watch this video. It's for the front air strut, but it's very similar. Time 4:34 - 5:20.

The difference between front/rear, is that while the plastic cover at the top in front is loosened 'manually', compressed air is used at the rear. Use our air filling hose or similar device, and pump a few bars in through valve inlet on the side. The cover will then fly off. Make sure there is clear passage, it can come out very fast.
The air filling hose, which is also used to pressure test the air bellows when the repair is complete, is available here.
We only ship within Scandinavia for the time being.
