Scotland 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HST Zermatt Silver
RRS air suspension

Hi Guys, hopefully someone can give me some advice on ongoing problem.......... Recently purchased my first Range Rover Sport 2.7 HSE (56) and loving it. Only problem I have is the air suspension lowering on one side (passenger) overnight when left in middle setting. When I leave it on off-road or access setting its ok.
It appears to lower more at the rear and this is driving me round the bend as it looks a sorry old sight when you get up in the morning. I have taken it too two local dealers and they cannot find a problem as no fault codes are showing and sometimes (like when you go to the dentist...) it doen`t happen....
There has been a few topics about this before on this forum but I can`t find any that have a solution.
Can anybody shed light on this problem ?


Cheers NEWBEE

Mine does this as well........it has done for almost 4 years (same side, mostly at the rear), I just get into the habit of putting it in access height when I'm parking overnight. I've asked the stealers about it, but they can't find anything (what a surprise!).
I've just learned to live with it now.

This is a reasonably common issue and can normally be put down to a faulty ride height sensor... dealer should be able to resolve fairly easily.

My 08 TDV8 had a recall yesterday for the sensors, there was nothing wrong with the car but they were doing them al on my year.
It's worth checking out if there was a similar recall for your car and if its ever been done before.....you might end up with a free repair.
