suspension height lower after driving
I noticed that my suspension height has changed by about 12 mm from when the car was parked after driving it home from work.(all around)
Is that normal?After the car sits it goes back up.I do have the suspension yellow light on as I mentioned in a previous post.
The car is in comfort mode and the lift mode is grayed out.The other modes are still available.
Thank you

No, it’s not normal, which is why the yellow suspension fault light is on. What’s causing it could be any number of things, but 99% of the time it’s a leak. Hundreds of threads here to google on how to diagnose.
But first job is to park it up overnight and enable jacking mode. In the morning, the corner that’s the lowest is where the leak is.

This is step one. Try not to drive the car, if there is a leak, it can overwork your compressor and burn it out, making the repair much more expensive.
