So they didn't do an alignment on mine either? “There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely gamesâ€

I'm not saying that, I am saying that it does not matter if the height of the hubs has been set at before tightening the bolts, as they all have to be loosened off to do a full 4 wheel alignment... My D3 Build Thread

Thanks DM, just need to keep her on the road until I can get booked in for 4 wheel alignment, not trying to get out of it. I dont fancy a very slow 35 mile trip down to get it done. At a push can I pull a fuse so the bloody thing doesn't lower as I drive? If I can get her down there without being at low height and low power then I can park her up down there until alignment is done.
@CaverD3, they were tightened when she was on her wheels not the lift.

This is exactly what happened to mine last Sept...
It took LR 8 weeks to solve. replaced angle sensors, compressor, ride height sensors and finally a "G" sensor....
Could be any of the above even though from the outset I said it was tracking and 4 wheel alignment or trapped wires.
Good luck

Thanks to all for the help
Re-calibrated steering angle sensor, she is now running with no faults.
An appointment to get 4 wheel alignment done will be made on monday.
Once again the forum saves the day.

Can only be done with a diagnostic tool, even then not all of them can do it.
