Sinking Overnight

Does anyone have any knowledge or experience of their RRS 'sinking' overnight ??? I have a 07 TDV8 and it sinks to the passenger side by about 30mm overnight, it also seems to be slightly leaning when driving in a straight line on level surfaces; it's been to the dealers who agreed there is a problem and they re-set the ride height sensors - it didn't work and now they say they don't know what it can be !!! and their technicians appear to be worse than usless as they've run out of ideas on how to fix it !!! it's still under warranty but before I sent it back to them indefinatley to find the problem I wanted to give them an idea of what to look for - incredible as it may seem Shocked I suppose I should try and different dealer really. Evil or Very Mad but any similar experiences would possibly help me sort it out..................

Although they reset the sensors it is usually a sensor problem, get them to replace the sensors. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
2009 Alaska TDV8 - Gone and much missed.

Front End

The front dipped overnight on my 07 TDV6. After resetting the ride heights and checking the sensors, it still settled in the front end. It turned out to be a faulty valve that required replacement - all done with out hassle, but a few days without the car as the dealer wanted to have it overnight to replicate the problem.

No mate no leaks you can actually hear the valve opening to let the air out then closing off. My money is on the height sensor is either faulty of not reading properly due to a bit of dirt etc.
