air suspension problem ?

Having a slight problem with suspension . When left over night the car is nearly down to bump stops in the morning, goes straight back up when started. I have put it in off road height, gone round all air struts with soapy water...no bubbles and no noise so have tried moving fuse 57 and left for 3 days . The front drivers side has gone down 2" and the other 3 wheels dropped half an inch . Does this prove a small leak in the strut or could it be something else ? any advice ? thanks Paul

Did you try lifting each corner (back to wheelarch lift) when if off road height?

If not an airbag, check all your height sensors are in place

Diagnostics might help pinpoint the problem... .

That's probably because all the air had drained from the system. They take a while to fill up again.

Sounds like you've got a leak to me.

Check your reservoir under the sill, mine had a piece of wood stuck in it, causing slow leak Three things in a blokes life his dog,his car and a Cornish pasty,nothing else matters.
