Hi All
Just wondered if anyone had any advice. My D3 seems to sag on its suspension on the drivers side when it is left parked, even if only for a couple of hours. I have measured the difference side to side and it is consistently 1" lower on the drivers side when left, regardless of where it is parked. Otherwise, it works fine, is level when running and immediately returns to level on start up. No suspension faults being shown on dash either.
I'm ignoring it for now on the basis that it is ok when it is going but am slightly intrigued as to why it is doing it!
Any ideas? MY11 Disco 4 SDV6 HSE

It may be a simple 'air leak'
There are numerous connections which it could be  although, it would more likely be compressor, or one (there's 3) valve blocks.
OR . . . it could be electrical, i.e. a problem with one (or both) RHS height sensors, or someother electrical problem 
The first step would be to get the car checked out using diagnostics, to see if there are any fault codes pointing to the suspension  Never get mad - get even !!
