The compressor could be at fault but check for leaks from the airbags or elsewhere first. If the leak is tucked up inside the fold of the bag the only symptoms can be it just takes awhile to rise and may not even get into off road height if selected (that's what I had). It can still sit without dropping with a hole in the air bag if it's sealed by the rubber in the fold.
Get it in off road height and check all the air bags, you'll probably hear the leak before you see it but a small leak is easier to spot by spraying soapy water on the bags as you would for a tyre puncture.

On mine I had to have a sensor changed at the back - ride height indicator - looked like a potentiometer - not expensive but solved the ride height issues - are you getting any messages ? 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE
