Hissing from rear after parked up....

Hi, had my first RRS (TDV8 HSE) for just a couple of weeks so want to check before I go running back to the dealer and look a plank!

When I parked up last night there was a hissing noise from the rear suspension (around a 2 second burst) sounded like a punctured tyre deflating - is this normal? or has something gone wrong with the air suspension?

Appreciate any comments back.

Colin

Welcome to the forum, challigan! Thumbs Up

Don't worry, this is normal for the air suspension to be settling itself once you have turned the engine off.
