bourhay Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Hello, I experienced sagging on both rear corners and took the vehicle to the mechanic. A new compressor was installed. Travelled 5 miles after retrieving the vehicle, at which point the chassis warning indicator activated. Exited the vehicle, observing that the passenger side's left rear and front are significantly elevated, while the driver's side front and rear are notably lowered. What actions has the garage failed to do to precipitate this situation?The garage has been closed for the past three days, so I will return tomorrow. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreexPatty Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 The effective functioning of the compressor has uncovered an additional problem. I suspect a problem with the release solenoid or the level sensor on the high side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bourhay Posted May 27 Author Share Posted May 27 Did the garage fail to identify any more issues during the initial inspection of the vehicle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreexPatty Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 If the issue arose after you had been driving it, it is plausible that it operated correctly following the component change. Was the riding height OK upon collection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bourhay Posted May 27 Author Share Posted May 27 The automobile had initially sagged on both sides, so I scheduled an appointment. Prior to the appointment, the car had elevated and appeared satisfactory, yet was taken to the garage nonetheless. They found no faults, so I proceeded on my way. A few days later, the car experienced another breakdown, necessitating flatbed transport to the mechanic for inspection of the sagging issue. The assessment indicated that the compressor required replacement. The adjustment was completed, and upon retrieving the vehicle, the height was satisfactory.After travelling 5 miles, the chassis warning illuminated, prompting me to exit the vehicle for inspection. That is when I observed it had ascended significantly on the passenger side. The car has been parked since then and remains at that elevation. Prior to my purchase, new airbags were installed on both sides four months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiantecon Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 My 7 Series exhibited similar behaviour when one of the level sensors on the rear suspension arm was inverted, resulting in an incorrect height reading and the vehicle attempting to compensate. The adjustment took five minutes to elevate the back and reposition the level sensor linkage in the opposite direction. I trust it is something as straightforward as this for you.

Meltarb Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Affirmative regarding the level sensor. The components may rotate incorrectly when the vehicle is elevated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
