Suspension Sagging Overnight - Range Rover Sport or LR3

  • ▼Parts and Tools Listed Below▼
    Today I'm talking about the suspensions sagging when left overnight in a range rover sport or LR3. The suspensions sags overnight because there is a leak in the air suspension system, however, the location of the leak is typically hidden because the vehicle goes through an auto-leveling sequence throughout the night. Because of this, a leak in the right front, for example, will cause the entire front end and possibly even the entire vehicle to drop when left overnight, as opposed to just the right front spring.
    This video will detail how the air suspension system works, the periodic checks the system does to re-level, and what you can do to disable the auto-level feature so you can find the exact location of a leak. Once the location is identified, you will likely just need to swap out the valve block or an air spring.
    No parts or tools are needed for the diagnostic process, but swapping the valve blocks has been detailed in my other videos:

    Middle valve block (usually asymptomatic, may cause leaking from the air reservoir): • Replace Reservoir (Mid...

    I wanted to comment and thank you for your videos on the RR Sport. I have recently replaced the Compressor on my 2008 Sport SS based on your video instruction, and now have determined the codes / messages that you got for the 'ride height sensor' (RHS) were the exact same as I am getting and it randomly collapses to the bump stops after those warning messages. I can start it and go for an unknown period of time, then same failure again. The air test overnight resulted in no movement at all (not even 1/16 of an in.!) at each corner and no front or back reduction, so I am hopeful it is just the LF RHS - the OEM part is due to me Monday or Tuesday. I will rebuild/replace all valve blocks in the future even if they indicate no problem at present. I will also leave a comment on the compressor replacement video regarding that procedure. Thanks again! Best, Jim

      @HazyJay  Před 3 lety +2

      It should be on relatively level ground, If it's a slight incline the front might drop some just from that. You can tell if it's the incline causing it by parking in reverse and seeing if the rear lowers instead.

With the fuse out i get a drop over night FL 30mm,FR 50mm, RL 5mm and RR 25mm also now the car will not actually level with each corner doing a different height. Ive sprayed them all with soapy water with no bubbles showing. any ideas would be great thanks.

  • @blackrocklookout
    @blackrocklookout Před 3 měsíci

    Mr. Hazy, a stumped LR3 owner here. I replaced the air struts, front and rear valve blocks are within a year old, overnight test confirms no leaks. But there seems to be an electrical issue. When I disconnect and reconnect the battery, I can freely raise and lower via the switch. Then, with no fault on the dash, EAS goes into "auto" mode, orange lights by switch go solid, 4x4 infotainment screen and radio lose function, and the suspension goes into normal height to drive and access mode at key off.
    Standard OBD2 scanner says vehicle is free of faults.
    Any insight would be helpful.

    My 2019 RR Sport SC V8 with 76K miles as started sagging a little in the front over night. LR Dealer could not find leak.Dealer thinks it's a pinhole leak in the system. But they couldn't find the leak. The truck is not throwing any codes, nothing on the dash.They didn't charge me for the two day diagnostic. Their plan is to wait for the system to throw a error code. Any thoughts from you would be much appreciated . Great channel by the way !! Very informative.

    @erikpechmann879 Před 2 lety +3

    Awesome video, thank you! Question, if I don't notice any change in height on the vehicle in the morning, but I hear the compressor running for a min or two upon startup, is that normal? Is it just replenishing air in the reservoir? Or is it likely due to a slow leak?

    • @HazyJay
      @HazyJay  Před 2 lety +3

      While driving the vehicle will use the reservoir to make height adjustments, so when the car is turned off, the reservoir will be partially empty and it will not refill while the car is off. Because of this, when you turn the car on it will need to run for a bit to refill the reservoir even with no leaks.

    Fantastic vid, my RRS 2.8 has been deflating about every day and sometimes it won’t raise at all, so I let it sit for few days and started it and it rose as normally I removed the Air suspension ECU fuse and it hasn’t sagged but my power steering was lost 🙈 any idea why?

    • @HazyJay
      @HazyJay  Před rokem +1

      The RRS has speed sensitive steering which changes the stiffness based on the speed, sometimes it errors due to voltage drops. I'd guess that leaving your car for a few days caused the battery voltage to drop enough to cause the module to error. I would let the car idle for a while to charge the battery, then unplug the battery for an hour (to reset), reconnect and try again. If it has been a few years since a new battery you can try that, I suggest AGM batteries. Otherwise, you may need to take to the dealer. Obviously check the power steering fluid level but I'm guessing this is normal.

      I'd spray the top of the front left spring and front valve block with soapy water to see if the Voss connection is leaking. Also, consider replacing the front valve block entirely, the O-rings and solenoid seals may just be worn out and are allowing leaks back to the compressor.

      The front and rear are controlled by separate valves, so there are two possibilities. 1. you happen to have leaks on the left side front and rear springs or at the valve blocks or 2. the air suspension needs to be calibrated to be level.

    Hi!! I am experiencing a similar scenario some people have called out below. The battery has been pulled for 3 days and it's sitting on a level surface. No sagging that we can tell. Is it possible it's some sort of bad sensor that is making the system think it's losing air when it is actually not?

      What is the problem with the vehicle? The good news is there are no leaks since it stayed up over night. The rear typically will rise faster due to less weight in the rear (engine in front).

Thanks for you response

    • @HazyJay
      @HazyJay  Před 10 měsíci

      If the entire front is down after unplugging the battery all night, it's likely the valve block. A height sensor issue would have unusual heights on the 4x4 info in the dash (versus real life), so luckily that's easy to see. I'd consider changing the valve block since it's fairly cheap and easy 👌

    Hello Hazy! Thank you for this video. I have a question and I apologize if it's a stupid one. I have a leaking rear sway bar which is being replaced early November. (couldn't get an earlier appointment) I also have sagging on the front driver side and it progressively gets lower each day the car sits. I drive it about every 3 days and it corrects itself every time I do drive it. My question is are the sway bars part of the air suspension or are they 2 different systems? Thank you for any information you can give me. My vehicle is a 2013 Range Rover Sport Supercharged

    • @HazyJay
      @HazyJay  Před rokem +2

      The sway bar is just that, a metal bar, that links the left and right suspension to prevent body roll. While parked, the sway bar doesn't do anything, it really only stresses when you're taking sharp turns. The supercharged version has "dynamic stability control" which complicates things, this is likely what's leaking. Long story short, the rear sway bar leak shouldn't be causing your front driver side lowering.

    I have just discovered that the air lines on the front valve block are all in the wrong places (courtesy of previous owner). The line that's supposed to go to the air compressor is in the port for the right strut; the line that's supposed to go to the left strut is in the air compressor port; and the line that's supposed to go to the right strut is in the port for the left strut.

      When lifting the system all solenoids are open so they would share the same gallery regardless, however, I would predict the vehicle wont be able to equal pressure between the springs or vent excess air correctly in this configuration.

    Hi haze I tested it and my front passenger side is the culprit. It lost 2cm over 48 hours. I see some videos say there is an acceptable limit if it drops less than an inch. Do you recommend changing the air spring or is it normal to lose a little air?

    • @HazyJay
      @HazyJay  Před 2 lety +2

      I think 2cm is OK, if it starts getting worse then you'll know what you need to change but it's probably OK to wait until it's more significant.

    Hey Hazy, what if the passenger side (front and back) doesn't raise, what could be the cause of that?

    • @Yakuzachris10
      @Yakuzachris10 Před rokem +1

      Most likely the bags. Lower the vehicle all the way to access mode. Turn car off and wait for compressor to shut off. Turn car back on and raise it. Step outside the vehicle and start spraying soapy water on the strut towers. If they aren't taking any air and there's lots of bubbles then that's the culprit. If not then refer to your valves.

    My issue is the (right rear) side sag when left overnight.

    So now what's the verdict?

    • @HazyJay

      Likely a leak with the right rear airspring or it's connection to the valve block.

      Same principle should apply, remove the battery connection (or fuse) to localize the leak. If there is no leak, consider you may be parking on a sloped horizontal (left or right) surface or the sensors need calibration.

      A faulty compressor alone wouldn't cause sagging, rather it would cause "Suspension fault normal height only" messages to appear shortly after starting the car as the compressor tries to fill the tank/springs but overheats.

      Extended mode will be selected if the vehicle senses it has become "grounded" on a rock or something, but it cannot be selected manually.
