    Suspension fault from slightly spirited turning

    Hi

    Seeking advice - I do have a gap tool but it is currently pretty unreliable on android.

    This has happened three times - suspension when I introduce more that normal body roll. Say a quick entry to the other lane from a side road. Error goes away after a few minutes.

    This is a new behaviour. I am guessing it has something to to with sensors (presumably height or something more sophisticated.).

    Presuming many people know the shortlist to look at!

    Thank you

    Without codes we’d all be guessing.

    Have you updated the Gap tool firmware recently?
    If you haven’t used it for a while and your OS has updated you can have problems.

    I had the fault again tonight - not cornering and no change in faults. Maybe I just need a hard reset.

    Looks like the temp sensor on the compressor may be playing up.

    A quick google only yielded an eBay option for a compressor temp sensor overhaul kits don't include the sensor so it looks like a new compressor?

    Will check the connectors when it stops raining.

    Don’t throw parts at it yet - check wiring and connectors and if you can’t see anything obvious, clear all faults, re-scan to confirm no faults present, then wait for the fault to occur again and immediately re-read faults to see what came up again.

    Is it a D3 or D4?

    Thanks, more investigation.. I have 8 weeks to fettle it out before the next trip anyway so plenty of time.
