Suspension farting noise !!!!!!

Just put the car in for a few upgrades etc.

Since being back the car tends to pass wind Embarassed after you get out and often when you lock the car!!

I remember seeing this topic b4 but not sure where!!!

Any ideas?

Always worries/confuses my dog, if he's hanging around the D3, which he often is. Amuses my 8 yr old as well.

just the computer checking the level and re-stting. Mine did it when I opened the tailgate, stopped doing this after upgrade, still dos at other times though.

Same here... if you tried the tailgate when locked the compressor would expel some air... now stopped since enhancement. Still settles on occasion but less so now than before.

Mine does it when I get home and get out of the car - not my weight, but probably the slope of our drive. Less noticeable on the flat.

I love this forum - mine expells air when locking it and at other random moments. I was in denial that there was something wrong! It hasn't had the enhancement but I hope to get that done in the next couple of weeks and I'll see if it makes a difference.

It won't be as regular but you'll still be disco farting Wink or self levelling in LR speak.
