is the ride bouncy? if it is then likely the nitrogen has left the nitrogen chambers and the fluid is filling them, or it could be intering the crankcase through the system pump, check oil level and see it it is over filled, the hissing you hear is the fuel pumps running. personally i would only use mb fluid, but others may have suggestions on compatible fluids

I've put 3 litres of MB hydraulic fluid in the suspension reservoir today. It's empty again. Where is it going?

I see no leakage up front. I've looked under the rear, although not really under, just what I can see from looking under the car and hands and knees and see no dripping.

Must I use MB hydraulic fluid or will any hydraulic fluid work?

Also, when the car is running, I hear a hissing from under the rear near the passenger rear wheel.
