Air Suspension Height Changes

Quick one guys, if I leave the car in normal height when parked overnight and then when I restart (without having moved) and notice the car making small height change corrections, is that normal or is it an indication of loss of air pressure overnight? Thanks in advance for any ideas! 2017 Range Rover Vogue V6 Diesel

I'm guessing if pressure was being lost Stan a warning light would illuminate? 2017 Range Rover Vogue V6 Diesel

Mine does this too.
Only slightly mind you.

I put it down to the unevenness of our drive (it has a slight diagonal slope away from the buildings to the trackway).

I've tended to put it into access mode now when I park up, especially if I know the car will probably be sat for a week before its next outing Smile Current

interesting...my drive is flat so its must be very sensitive. I also wondered whether access height was best for the car when left for a week or two versus leaving in standard height.

I tend to leave my car in standard height as inconsiderate peoples doors have less ability to place a dent in the car! 2017 Range Rover Vogue V6 Diesel

My 2014 405 parks in the garage all day, perfectly flat, still drops the nose slightly..

My 2011 322 did this very thing, with new front airstruts, and new front control valve block..

I do not bother about this any longer, until the day I find her nose on the stops, then I will worry..

That's good to hear. Probably not worth me being charged to find any issues if it's normal then. Could get quite expensive. Just don't remember the car doing it when new.. 2017 Range Rover Vogue V6 Diesel

I'd certainly like to understand how the system works better. I've seen the rear of the car move when its just been turned off..you'd think with the ignition off no more adjustments would occur. But I've seen small corrections. 2017 Range Rover Vogue V6 Diesel

This answers the question in the operation description:

Periodic Re-levelling
When the vehicle is parked, the Integrated Suspension Control Module
'wakes up' two hours after the ignition was last switched off and then once
every twenty four hours. The vehicle height is checked and if the vehicle is
not level within a pre-set tolerance, small downwards height adjustments
may be made automatically


So it is normal! Didn't know it did that when off. 2017 Range Rover Vogue V6 Diesel

Just when I had convinced myself and now I'm worried again!

started up yesterday (afetr leaving in standard height) and the front height popped up again to level itself (probably half an inch) on completely level ground. Has anybody else had this? My car is 017 with 70k miles now.

Thanks in advance. I don't ever remember it doing it before.

Has Camtech Craig seen this on L405's? 2017 Range Rover Vogue V6 Diesel

Jase71, yes, 100%, as I mentioned in my previous post, my garage is perfectly flat, she still dips..

1/2" is nothing, 2" or more I would look for what-ifs...

Has anyone confirmed there are no leaks or faults? Has yours always done that? 2017 Range Rover Vogue V6 Diesel
