Scotland 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Java Black
2010 Diesel Sport Suspension Drop

Hi Chaps

My sister has a 2010 Sport TDV8. She popped in with it today to ask my advice as over the last week or say it has dropped around 1 1/2" on the drivers side.

It travels up and down from Access to Off-road ok but still at each setting is down the same amount on the Drivers side.
I can't hear any air leakage or that so I told her I would ask the guys that knew a lot more than me for their help.

Any suggestions on what to check would be much appreciated.

Cheers Jock. Confused

I was trying to get an idea of what might be causing it . In case it was an easy fix.

Hi Jock
My 2012 HSE had a similar issue which was related to the YAW sensor under the centre console. It wasn't out as much as yours about 20-25mm but enough. It was replaced under warranty for around £600 for a LR dealer.

As an aside their mechanic told me that their suspension calibration is accurate to within 10mm. Anything within this is deemed OK by LR.

Good luck! 2015 RRS AB SDV6, Fuji White, Ivory

At least get the codes read to give you an idea of what might be broken..... Thumbs Up Visitor from fullfatrr.com

Does it drop down overnight, or is it always that low?

FWIW, the LR calibration should have a tolerance of only +/- 3mm per side Thumbs Up

Sounds like a height sensor or calibration issue

Should any of these have thrown up a warning on the dash display or would they need codes read to determine.

If everything is still within tolerance, then it won't flag up a fault
