EAS fault need advice please

Dear all.
I have a strange one, recently i changed the brake pads on all corners, (RRS 2.7V6 2007)
The car drove fine no problems, about 2 days later the suspension warning light came on locked at normal height.
I have lowered and Heightened it several times and it settles at normal height. I can drive for about a mile or so with no issues then the light comes back on.
Do i need to have the suspension re-calibrated as i have jacked it up?.
Car does not sag overnight and no sign of an air leak.

Any help appreciated

I think you need the DTCs read. Can you hear the air compressor running a lot? You may not leak air from the air springs or even the tank but if the comp is worn and runs a lot more to compensate, this can also give you a warning. Jacking the vehicle should make no difference, my car settles back to normal as soon as I’ve moved it (allowing the suspension to move back to rest). 2019 5.0 SC SVA (Current)

Is there anyone in Gloucester who could read my codes?
Will have to invest in a diagnostic tool

It’s well worth buying an IID tool and will probably pay its way in no time. I’ve got SDD which is very in depth and will do things the IID tool can’t, however the IID tool is so much easier to use that I use it often. SDD can take about 10 minutes to setup but IID is more like 10 seconds. 2019 5.0 SC SVA (Current)

Titch, if you can't warrant getting an IIDTool, the cost it would take for someone to come around to read the codes, you are better off spending that money on an ODB reader from icarsoft etc. For sure you will get issues in the future and you dont want to be paying out again for someone. RRS 2006 2.7TD BLACK (MY FIRST RR!!!!)

Thanks for that, and listening to others i have decided to splash out and get a Hawkeye, so hopefully save some cash along the way. I agree totally as i do not intend on getting rid of my RRS as it only has 50,000 miles on it.

Jacking doesn't make any difference.

The fault codes will be useful.

Do you think that you may have disturbed one of the height sensors when doing your brakes? They are small, plastic, articulated arms located within the arch on each of the four corners. Kev

I have changed the rear right height sensor but the on board display shows the car is level.

Needs calibration when you change a sensor
