Re: Air suspension having problems

I went to the dealer, so I can speak to the technician, however they refused to let me speak to the technician, I did argue with them about the diagnosis but in the end I decided not to waste my time and more money and just paid the £99 diagnosis fee and got the car back. From my experience I say de...

Re: Air suspension having problems

But I still w...

Re: Air suspension having problems

Don't think it has a deflate function , its not a range rover with 4 wheel airbags that can crouch down to get in/out. If The sensors are working it should stop the pump at the correct level so never need to deflate surely ? the only way it will go too high imo is if the sensor doesn't feedback . H...

Re: Air suspension having problems

Hi Alan, yes the sensor are both same, however the bracket which holds the sensor is different so I unscrewed from the bracket and then replaced the sensor from side to side.

Update I have been driving the car up until now thankfully no codes, but I’m extremely nervous while driving :D

Re: Air suspension having problems

Finally everything is resolved, I disconnected the rear level sensors both sides cleaned them with WD40 and applied some grease, I then swapped them over to the other side and reconnected. As soon as I switched on the ignition the air compressor kicked inn but the car went too high again. So I tried...

Re: Air suspension having problems

Thank you Leslie for your reply, I have checked all the ride height sensors they all seems to be fine, have a look in the pictures. I have also done the ride height calibration and reduced the numbers to 700mm on each wheel so the drive was good and the car is not lifting itself higher, however I’m ...
