Assuming that you have now removed the tiles Whistle

Have you tried all the usual things like, raising & lowering with the doors shut, Driving over 40 mph etc.

Sounds like it still thinks that the weight's still there. May have to do a hard reset. Thumbs Up

Yep tried all that, forgot to mention there are no lights on the panel where there should be for the control to raise and lower the suspension 2004 vogue

No lights, hard fault, requires reset with diagnostic tool

Check fault codes first though, could be a height sensor issue.... .

Looking at the pictures.

The outside edge of the tyre and the state of the alloy wheel suggest that you will have worn suspension parts/bushes AND stuck brake calipers.

Maybe a wagon load of tiles was a 'bush's' last straw?

I am in the process of replacing the whole of the rear suspension on my 2007 as we speak.

Best of luck, Rich

So the car was looked at today, plugged in to the diagnostic tool which obviously showed a fault , Hit the reset button and hey presto all is good, I reckon my mistake was not starting the car while I was loading the tiles so the suspension could self level, Thanks for the advice Gentlemen. 2004 vogue
