RRS 06 TDV6 Suspension Dropping Overnight - Help Urgent :(

Hi

So.. my O6 RRS keeps dropping very low overnight though not to the bump stops.

I've had new bags put in recently but still the same issue.

Yesterday, I removed the EAS fuse in the engine bay and today the left side is around access height but the right is very low.

When I start the car, it's fine. It pumps right up and there are no HDC faults showing. The compressor doesn't appear to be constantly working.

I suspect its the Solenoid blocks so I plan to get the garage to remove them and clean them out with petroleum jelly. I can't get new seals or parts just yet as I have a long trip home on Monday and no-one is delivering ((((

Any thoughts guys on what else I should do/check.

Much appreciated

Valve blocks or air leak in a pipe. As it's both sides, that would suggest that the valve blocks have junk in them, probably desiccant from the air dryer in the compressor. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

I don't think you use petroleum jelly. Water is fine to get ride of white power.

Why don't you want till your home?

I read somewhere that you use petroleum jelly.

I'll just clean them without using anything.

I'm travelling to Italy (Home) but I trust my garage here rather than there Crying or Very sad

Alternator
Pulleys
Gearbox oil service
Engine oil service
Coolant flush

Now it's just the suspension Sad(
