I might be wrong and I'm sure someone will correct me, but I always thought the car had some kind of sleep mode and drops down automatically if left for a certain length of time. Mind does if I haven't used it for a while??? |

After checking my complaint that the suspension sank 50 mm from access mode height once my car was left for 36 hours or more, my dealer said they couldn't detect this! The senior technician was then paraded and he swore that the suspension cannot physically sink any lower than access mode. When I assured them, that as an engineer, I was quite capable of measuring and recording the height of the wheel arch to the ground accurately, they checked it again and two days later came back with the story that they had contacted Land Rover and had been told to tell me "they all do that". I sold the car 2 weeks later and do not miss all the problems and hassle that seem to go with LR ownership. Gone - 2008 TDV8, Stornoway Grey, ebony, zabrano trim, TV, Tasmods, mudflaps. |

since the outside temperature is much below zero degrees (minus 10 degrees at night), my suspension is sinking overnight. When temperature was normal I did not have any problems. Is this normal or should i be worried? car is 5 years old, with 90.000 miles |

Could be a slight leak on the exhaust valve which is overcome when the pump comes on.

hi guys! had a similar problem, but mine dropped just on the left side.....went to LR and found the problem...air dryer and repair kit for the compressor (repair kit as in a couple of o-rings, a small spring and a very small exhaust valve). damage-200 euros for the lot but still not sure it's fixed... |
