hi

plus 1 with regards to checking with soapy water

go round measure all ur wheels from the centre of the wheel hub to the bottom of the wheel arch in normal ride height , then pull fuse F26 from the engine fuse box and leave overnight

then in the morning remeasure all ur wheels and if any of them have dropped

pulling the fuse stops the self levelling process that is performed approx every 6 x hours

hope that helps

plus 1, has that on mine with leaking front springs , threw me at first as it only leaked at certain heights , then tested them again when off the disco, yeh i know I need to get out more, lol

that was just the start of hunting down leaks as I think it had more leaks than a colander, but alas had been seriously neglected
