suspension help

d3 06 bought it in the summer noticed directly that the front was in acsess height in the mornings. but directly when i started the car it came up to standard height. but now the yellow varning light comes on after a couple of hours because it has lowered itself in the front not all the way down to accsess height gradually sinking. thougt it would be the front valve block. changed that no diffrence. the compressor is only one year old and the same for the shocks. tryed remowing fuse 26 over night slightly lower in front right. tryed soaping the front valve and shock no bubbles. when i clear faultcodes with nanocom it comes back to normal height and yellow light goes away for a couple of hours. getting fault codes: C1A13 , UO132 , UO421. but i dont understand what that got to do with the front sinking!!! ideas?? airleaks? shocks leaking?

What shows on the 4x4 screen as may be a dodgy height sensor and this might give a clue

if the front right drops when the fuse is pulled there is probs an air leak in that corner. when the fuse is in, the car is probably self leveling and letting the air out of the front left, hence why the whole front drops.

Have you got an output voltage from the front sensors?

It could also be that you just need to calibrate it all. if there is too much of a difference between all the values it will kick up a fuss.

The rear of mine was dropping a while ago. Turns out I had snapped a sensor in half. Worked perfectly until I locked it and it tried to self level
Good luck!

4x4 screens shows what happens in reality. so idont think its a sensor.
c1a13 fault i think iam gettig because when i disconected the airline to the front valve block i still had 97 in my nanocom so i have ordered a new one. but i cant find any leaks...
so iam thinking about ordering new front shocks..
