yes, common problems are the humans who install them.

unless you want to pukl them apart the only thing you can really do is hook up the air before installing them and make sure they are engaging and disengaging properly

yes, hook up some shop air with a gauge ans switch. let it sit for 5-10 min while turning the crownwheel every so often. if it maintains good pressure then its good to go.

The only real issues are the o-ring seals, however other issues can arise due to poor installation (be it in someones shed, or the best ARB shop).
