Front height lopsided

Searched the forum for ride height issues but i did not find any info on front height issues. Is there any kind of adjustment for the front suspension ?

Left front is 1 inch lower than right front, rears ok. Tire inflation even all around. I don't have ride height adjustment either.

Appreciate any info.

Do you have adjustable ride height suspension? If so, one of your air struts is most likely leaking.

I don't have ride height adjustment controls in the dash at all. I think the rears adjust themselves with weight, there must be a way to reset them. Anyone ?

Have you checked all of your front suspension/bushings? Maybe something has failed?

asx,,, i have not checked underneath vehicle but i found a document posted by drewx about rear air suspension and that maybe the problem. I think the air pump and be heard after stopping if in a quiet area so i'm going to park the x in the garage tonight. might be a air pump issue.
I hope its not a big issue as i'm about to drive up to Montreal., 800 miles 1way.
