I'm leaning to the left

I seem to have developed a slight lean to the left. You can't see a front to back lean frm the side but the lefthand side (passenger) is definataly lower than the right. It doesn't drop overnight it just sits there. I'm assuming it needs its ride hieght sensors resetting or something or is there something I can do? 07 tdv8 stornoway grey at home tucked up

Probably need a new sensor. if there is a fault then switch to the 4x4 Info screen on the central screen and the main display will show a red bar above the wheel where the sensor has failed 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I had the same issue with my range rover sport when i picked it up.

Carried out a calibration of the suspension (requires the JLR software) and all has been well ever since. Was about 4 months ago. So hopefully wont be an expensive fix for you

Check the rod is not seized onto the link of the suspension arm. If it doesn't pivot, it can cause all sorts of weird suspension issues.

I normally have to go around all 4 and unstick them as part of a service. Once cleaned, and a bit of grease applied, they should be fine for a long time Thumbs Up

Had it on my first RRS. Needed a new ride height sensor on one corner and recalibrating. When you lower to access height does it show any wheels lower than others? Mine used to lower to access height OK but one corner would flash red on the 4x4 screen.
