hello there its been a while since i have picked your brains but here is hoping you can help i just jumped in my trusty p38 and the ride hight went straight to high? i stopped the car and it sounded like the compressor was still running do i have a serious problem or will it sort itself and also is it safe to drive like this many thanks for any help

Height sensor problem or possibly driver pack, it's a soft fault might correct itself next time you start it. You really need to read the faults.
