Hi guys
Had the d3 about a month. 56 plate 70,000 miles.
Drove to London this morning, about 45 miles, and after 40ish had Suspension Fault and yellow light.
Vehicle did not feel any different and no other messages.
Pulled over, turned off ignition, left for about 30 seconds, restarted, fault gone.
Worked all day and drove home with no re-occurrence.
Any advice? I have a 500ish mile round trip planned in 2 weeks to Scotland.
I plugged in my (new) icarsoft i930 and it showed 1 fault which was "air spring air supply". the Icarsoft cleared it.
thanks
Johnny
EDIT
also noticed that after sitting in the car park all day, the front looked like it had dropped while parked, but the rear had not, cant be certain but looked that way to me.

Loads to check inclu ( and IMO, priority order )
Steering Angle Sensor - Have it recalibrated
Brake Pedal Switch - Buy a new one and change
Brake Bulbs _ Change them even if they appear to be ok.
There are others inclu a whole host of possible wiring issues and fuel filter oddities, but those are usually the first ports of call.

Had the same issues on my 05 D3. It was the the brake light switch. If you don't already have an IID Tool get one it will save you a lot of time and hassle
Good luck

I'm in Australia and ordered on line through Britpart ( easier for you I guess). There service was first rate, get the wifi version it talks to iPhone or iPad much easier than using the cruise control switches as on the cheaper version.
