Charles200 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2012 The self leveling suspension in the touring is dropping rapidly (~5 minutes) while the car is switched off. Turning the car on it pumps itself up and holds during driving, but I dont want to risk driving in case of further damage. The self leveling fault light has NOT come on, so I dont think the electrical system has faulted. Does anyone know what part is most likely to have failed? Will it be the bag leaking, a broken valve in the system or something else? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Allanw 1071 Report post Posted January 16, 2012 The "springs" are known to fail, as crud gets caught in them and wears holes etc. They aren't terribly cheap to replace, but they do last a long time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charles200 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2012 am i best to remove the airbag and pressure test it then, as this is the most likely fault of the bag deflating, not a leaking air reservoir or something? hopefully someone has had hands on experience with this. this has been helpful however.

Allanw 1071 Report post Posted January 17, 2012 Does one rear corner sag more than the other when parked on the flat? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charles200 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2012 no. both sides are fine when engine first turned off, then the right rear visibly starts to drop after a minute or so, all the way down to the bumpstop Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
