| HELP - NEW DISCO 3 MEMBER |
|
Hi, All only purchased disco 3 last weekend. Love it. But have a couple of issue need help with.
Main issue is suspension. Noticed when i was on a grass bank and there was a dip. as soon as wheel went in to dip, no matter what speed amber suspension warning light cable on. Suspension failure.
disco still operated fine even suspension going up and down. Light went off when i moved to flat ground and switch on and off.
also noticed drivers wheel was ok going in dip all other three caused light to come on.
Please can anyone shed any light before go down route of paying for diagnostics.
Thanks
Paul

Welcome, Paul. 
Sounds like a height sensor issue to me. If you show off road information on the sat nav display, it may give you a clue as to which height sensor(s) are causing the problem.
Also, you would benefit from getting your fault codes read to help narrow down the problem. There are probably forum members near you who have diagnostic equipment who might be willing to help with this.

Were you on "Offroad" or "Normal" height setting? Maybe the articulation was too much for standard height?
No idea if this is the case, just thinking outloud!

Just been told by local 4x4 garage that may be caused by worn control arms.
I do have a knocking noise which has been getting louder from front driver side. Anybody know why that would cause the fault?
Thanks
