car sinking overnight - what to look for?
Hi
I have a bit of a problem with my 2006 LR3 lowering overnight
Last night I put it into offroad mode, took 4 corner measurements and removed the suspension fuses.
I then left it over night and measured again this morning. and all four corners have dropped a bit
measurement drop:
Front NS: 6.5 cm
Front OS: 4 cm
Rear NS: 7.5 cm
Rear OS: 4.5
So the Near side seems to be dropping more than the the off-side but that still dropping too.
Any ideas on what to check for please? I dont have any relatable error faults in GAP tool.

I'll do the soap & water thing on the fronts, but as I understand it, thats not much use on the rears because of the rubber boot?
i did replace the air reservoir about 6 months ago.

Mine did this a few months ago, dropped to bump stops over a few days. I'd previously had a leaking valve block and suspected that again, or a leaking bag but this time the local indy recalibrated the height sensors using his Autologic tool. I wasn't convinced but it's been fine since.D4 XS, gone, much loved, never forgotten
