Hey everyone,
So after a fun winter of battery and coolant (valley pan replacement) issues, here is my latest. When my 07 4.8i with active suspension sits for more than an hour now, my rear suspension completely deflates.
Thing is this happens much more quickly if I am on an uneven surface and sometimes only on the drivers side. So I am looking at either a strut, the compressor itself, or a sensor which is bad. I have no DSC errors at all so as long as I wait for the car to reinflate the suspension before driving I am good to go.
Question is, how does this system really work and how can I eliminate fail points? Anyone have any good guidance on how to approach this? I have looked around the forums and only see the replacement threads but no real diagnosis.
Any help is appreciated and I look forward to Ard's super smart response telling me I am a horrible person for asking
