Not mine, a mates. Paid him an unannounced visit yesterday and he has an eas issue I didn't know about so didn't have my nanocom.
It was raining hard so couldn't fiddle much on his drive. His car is dropping to at least access height within a minute of parking up.
The car, yesterday, had been parked up for around 8 hrs, we started it up, I checked compressor suction which was good and removed the exhaust silencer. Didn't time it but seemed like 3 minutes and car went to normal height, no loss of air from the silencer port,switched off the engine and lots of ticking from the valve block along with frequent air dumping from the exhaust and the car dropped in quickish stages to access, maybe to the bump stops, puddles and rain prevented any further investigation.
My first 'wet behind the ears' thought is an, airspring side of the eas, leak rather than a valve block, level sensor, ecu issue. Once up he can drive it no issues and he can't hear the compressor running whilst driving but I can't hear mine either which is performing as it should.
I've suggested the soapy water leak test for now but any other pointers he can try before I can get round to his again with the nano?
