Hello,

Help please!

I went out to my car this morning and the rear was very low where i couldn't see the top of my tyres.

When I start my car a message appears "suspension faulty" I then press the suspension lowing button and it levels out to normal height.

I then start to drive and a message on the dashboard appears "slow down or suspension will rise" at normal speeds but....then it disappears and so does the "suspension faulty" message and all is normal.

I have read Mufflers may need to be changed which are cheap or the airbags or if there are any leaks?

Thank you for your time, really appreciate it.

If it's dropping, it's probably a leak, if an airbag is leaking, it will not be long before the compressor fails from over work.

If you press the lower button that puts it in access height, once over a certain speed it will rise to normal.

The rear being down is a different issue.

So garage ran a diagnostics search on it and the front left sensor is not getting enough vaults

So low volts on front left caused rear to drop, that's a bit strange. Are they familiar with L322's ? did they suggest a course of action? are they saying the 5v reference voltage is low?

`the mechanic has always dealt with Land Rovers and has owned Vogues.

The computer diagnostics he hooked to my RR read "Front left level sensor voltage out of range"

He then advised that would be the level sensor...also he never mentioned about the 5v.

You do know that Vogue is just a trim level and not a model

Click to expand...

So is he replacing the sensor?

Hopefully that sorts it but I won't hold my breath just yet.

Welcome to the world of the L322 where nothing is as it appears, and LR fault codes are just a rough guess on LR's part
