Sagging suspension

Hi all,
At rest on an even surface after a few hours my car seems to lean to the right. With engine running it's all fine and there are no warnings. Is this just normal settling or should it always sit level?
Cheers

You have a leak. Its fine when the engine is running because the compressor is running and keeping it level. Get them to check air pipe connections before anything else. If it were the height sensors then it woul dnot be level whith the engione running either. Trust me, i'm an Engineer!

thanks - actually i double checked, it actually stays at the same level of len even if you jack the suspension up or lower it all the way - seems to lean at a constant level - sorry was mistaken before. In that case i guess its a sensor, will get them out to take a look anyway! MY2010 RRS 5.0 S/C Santorini Black, 5 Spoke Diamond Turned Alloys, Privacy, Logic7, iPod, Cameras

Hiya,
I just wanted to say that my 08 sport tends to lean to the right when the engine is off too. It goes back in to the dealer Wednesday for a diff replacement and I will add this to their list.
It seems to judder when the breaks are applied hard too - took it to the dealer and the engineer drove it and pointed out that the breaks could be warped. The service manager seems to think it's all linked to my diff Sad

think mine is now sorted having had a new sensor fitted but I am now paranoid, does seem very sensitive to the road camber - currently trying it in every car park i go to with a spirit level in the back of the car! MY2010 RRS 5.0 S/C Santorini Black, 5 Spoke Diamond Turned Alloys, Privacy, Logic7, iPod, Cameras

You can tell if a sensor isn't working by going to the 4x4 info screen - inoperative sensors have a red bar at the icon that shows each wheel's extension on the screen. Normally they are shown as white when they are operating OK 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Tim,
I just been to the car and checked 4x4 Info.
4 orange bars - One green bar center and 4 x2 small white bars around the wheels.

Funny because I gave the car to LR for the first 1500 km check.
They put the suspension on computer. No message. Suspension is within 0,2 cm tolerance.

Just read the info on the 4x4 screen and when I checked my car - ooh what a surprise -> one of the sensors is red. Great advice, cheers!
