Wild shot in the dark but could it be the EPB? Might be worth trying to lower to access height first, then apply brake to see if noise stilll occurs.

But I have no knowledge of newest RRS so might be talking out of my bum. Neutral Robin

The noise is normal, better to start lowering the car a few metres before you park up while the car is still rolling,the car is still drivable at entry height up to 15mph IIRC when you will get the bongs and a warning to raise the car. The noise is stress in the system as the car lowers. There is a warning about this in the owner’s manual IIRC. All 5 of my air suspended Range Rovers made the same noise if I lower the car when it is stopped. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
