Level Control Malfunction
 
So I had this error on my dash for about 6 months now but no saggyness but air compressor is loud and continues to run even after the engine shuts off for a minute. Replaced the bags (easier than I expected) with Arnott hoping they are the culprit but issue remains. Now a new Arnott air compressor is on the way and let's see if that's the issue. Now if the compressor is indeed the culprit and replaced, error needs to be cleared (my apologies if I missed it)? I see threads about it but no mention of it as far as I know.

Cost me almost 1k for bags and compressor yikes :rant: Thank you all in advance!

If you did all that I would check next the leveling sensors

Okay I went ahead and completed the install. Took 30 minutes to complete the job, turned on the engine and boom! It started working. Drove for 15 minutes and I do not see the error message anymore (normally within the first 5 minutes error pops up) Compressor is now silent as a sleeping baby.

Prior to this, I checked fuse 40 (front) and fuse 10 (rear) and both are fine. One thing I noticed though, the new air compressor wasn't inflating the bags while the rear was lifted and I had to lower the car gradually so the tires touches the ground and that's when the compressor started kicking in and it does the job so MUCH FASTER than my old one. So with new pair of Arnott bags and a new compressor, I will be good for a while now.

Time to install this bad boy....
