Sat on the floor boy racer style.
I haven't used my discovery for approx 2 weeks and I noticed this morning it looks like it's sat on its bump stops. I started it up and fair play it went up to normal height in seconds. Although back first and the front. I drove it for a few miles and all seems ok. It goes to off road height and access height no problem. The reason I'm posting is... Is it normal for the cars suspension to drop over time ? Or should I get the LDF out and start looking for leaks ? Jarrod

It should stay up, so hunt for leaks you will.
It is normal for the rear to raise first to avoid headlamp dazzle.

Thank you for the speedy reply Robbie are there any common areas to check first ? Mine has got the xenon adaptive headlights. I love the way the do the out in, up thing when they first come on.Jarrod

Aye I've got a few tins of leak detection fluid in the garage. Gas engineer by trade now so use it quite often. Just wondered if there were common places to look at first as if imagine it's a fairly complex set up. Is it worth servicing the air compressor and dryer while I'm at it ?Jarrod

Front valve block or leaky pipes.
Both, in my case.
