L320 3.0 tdv6 suspension drops

Im not clued up on air / hydraulic suspension at all.
ve had the car around 9 months without any problems but yesterday a suspension fault error message came on the display.
I googled possible causes and a quick fix suggested turning the steering wheel to full lock left then right to clear the fault, that didnt work.
This morning I went to the car and when I opened the passenger door to get something out the suspension "sighed" and dropped down so that the wheels are sat into the wheel arches.

I dont have any fault reading gizmos so just looking for thoughts / advice
thanks
David

Any codes?

Could be compressor, reservoir, valve blocks or suspension bags.

Dropping overnight could be the valve block, if you are lucky, or suspension bags if you are not. Dropping immediately could be the bags. Inflate, spray with soapy water and check for leaks.

Also spray the reservoir and check that. They rust L320 Range Rover Sport 2008

Will it rise up to normal height by selecting the raise button on the console?

Is there a yellow or red error light on the dash?

There are a number of possible causes and you really do need to get the fault codes read as part of the process. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

It returns to normal height some times by itself and sometimes I have to select access height then normal ride height
Its a yellow triangle on the dash

Ill have to find a place locally that can read the codes
