I picked my d3 up from some warranty work a few weeks ago (new LH side cat) I stopped at a store near the dealer after and when I came back out I started the d3 and drove away and the suspension fault light came on. I thought about taking it back to the dealer but it was after 5 on friday and they were closed. Next time I drove it the fault was gone. Now it pops on randomly every few days, but clears when ever I turn the d3 off then back on.
Question is does the computer log the fault? I want to take it in to have it looked at but I am now into my extended warranty and there is a $100 service fee when ever I take it in. Do I need to wait for the light to come back on and take it over right then. Or will they be able to see the fault even after its turned off?

And does the compressor ever actually completely shut off? It always seems to be running.Sceen name use to be "wantsanlr3"

The fault should be logged.
And the compressor should not be running continuously.

Best to get it checked straight away. If the compressor's running all the time it will overheat and ultimately fail.

To add to philhunt - go get it checked. I had the warning lights until they went away for a while. Next time they came on was the red warning (not yellow) and I lost all suspension.
Better to have the sensors changed and the compressor checked now before you have an uncomfortable journey to the dealer with no suspension.The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...
