Has it been completely recalibrated? With that much work it probably needs a full calibration.

Dropping to the bumps stops is indicative of a cross axle error - fault code C1A0762 - the system thinks a pair of opposite wheels is high and the other low. This is an unsafe configuration, obviously, so it drops the suspension to make it safe to drive at low speed. When it happens, it's rather unnerving - BTDT on a dual carriageway at 70mph!

Thanks for your reply Brit Plumber, I've just had a call from the garage saying he's done a calibration, yesterday and that he needs to do another one today, maybe that could be the full calibrate that you just mentioned.

Thank you for your advice RRSTDV8 I shall pass this onto the garage in case the calibration does not do the job. Much appreciated 👍 Updated sat nav

One thing to remember about the calibration (not sure if your garage is an LR specialist) is that the calibration figures held by the Air Suspension Module are not ride height figures. They are just a number that the system uses as a base figure. You will find that each corner has a figure and that each of them is different. This is normal. Don't try to get the figures to be the same - doing so will likely cause the cross axle fault.

UPDATE !! The issue i had is 90% fixed, he's fitted a tempory hight sensor to the front left, so it's stopped the suspention lowering and the 'max speed 30 mph has gone. The parts been ordered and due to be fitted on tuesday. Took it out for a drive today and there didnt seem to be any dramas, except now when i drive it im constantly looking for warning signs on the dash to appear. Its going to take a while before i can trust it fully again, if you know what i mean !! Thank you to each and everyone of you for your valuable input, and your detailed responses to my post. Regards Wayne. Updated sat nav

After my temporary fix on the front hight sensor, my new one was due to be fitted on friday morning by a Land rover specialist, but unfortunately when I came to the car to set off all four corners are at what appears to be easy access mode (wheels nearly touching the rims) and I'm getting no response from the hight adjuster on the centre console (it's not raising at all) just getting 'suspension fault' on the dash. So the RAC are booked for Monday morning as it's undrivable at the moment. Gut feeling is it's not the height sensor that's the problem, I think it may be the air suspension compressor again.. thoughts please ? Updated sat nav
