Thread: Suspension Drama

Busted front airbag would be my first guess, or a stuffed ride height sensor. Have you had the air bags done yet? If not you have done well. Are you getting any faults coming up?

No warnings messages just both sides of front sitting on bump stops and the rear at max height.

As above, check for BIG airbag leaks and / or an air line/ crosslink solenoid leak.

No faults shown means no electronic faults, the ECU doesn't detect an air leak like this immediately, usually after a while of trying to level out etc it will realise something is amiss.

Stuffed air bag was the cause.

If the EAS ECU goes into error mode, i.e. shut down mode, and the cause was a leaking air bag, after replacing for a new one, will the ECU re consider the situation or does it have to go off to the dealer for reseting?

It would need resetting. If you don't have your own diagnostic tool, then you will need a dealer or similar to do it.

Thanks for the info Gav,

Got another one, found this in the forums, will this work?....

Resetting ALL Defect Codes

Ignition key must be “off”.
• Press and hold the Check Control button in the instrument cluster (RIGHT button), and turn the ignition key to the first position (KLR).
* You will first see "Check Control OK", some seconds later you will see "Test Nr.01"
* Push the left button on the instrument cluster to see the car's identification number.
Add the 5 digits (not 6) together and write down that number, you will need it for unlocking all the functions.
Example: A123457 will lead to 2+3+4+5+7 = 21
* Push the right button until you see "Test Nr.19"
* Push left button until you see the number that is equal to the one you calculated above
* Push right button again
* Using the left button select 21. Reset all defect codes
* Press the Right button to select.
