PLEASE HELP????
 

Hi guys
totally new member
my 06 4.8is has got a bad virus lolol
its got air suspension and when you drop the suspension down
the front refuses to go back up again..........I HAVE TO GO BACK TO THE DEALER FOR THEM TO BRING IT BACK TO NORMAL
its been to the dealer about 6 times already and they say thay cant pick the fault
its now with them for 2 weeks and still no progress
HAS ANYONE HAD A SIMILIAR PROB IF SO CAN U HELP ME?:banghead::tantrum:

Just curious. Where's the dealer in swaziland???

yup
and the workshop foreman is highly trained
really
but no show with my wheels:yawn:

They should be able to monitor the desired ride height vs actual ride height in the GT1 and go through the system component by component seeing what's working properly and what isn't. Sometimes it takes having an extensive knowledge of the system from getting your butt kicked by it once or twice. Hopefully they get it figured out soon!

I feel your pain. I bought my X5 4.8is last May, and to date the air suspension has been the thorn in my side as well. It's been at the dealer since Tuesday getting the suspension air pump replaced, as well as peeling interior door handles and peeling steering wheel trim replaced. Both front air struts have been replaced as well. I thought maybe my $3700 extended warranty was a bit steep, but since I've had it in for over $5000 in repairs, I guess I'm ahead?!?:dunno: I love the vehicle, but one more suspension related issue, and I think it will need to go to a new owner. I'll replace it with another BMW, but one with a "conventional" suspension setup. Hang in there...maybe it will get better....maybe.
