    hi guys i have a strange one after a hard braking my air suspension went down on all 4 wheels .i then stopped it pumped up fine .i then drove twenty minutes .it went down again a few yards from home .i then set to allroad it went up .and it is still up 24hours later....surely if there was a leak it would have gone down on only 1 wheel ,as i have had this issue before and replaced rear airbag last year..any ideas could it be a computer glitch ?

    Staying inflated at full height is a good sign of an air bag leak and I would imagine it is a front.

    hi all .
    still no closer to solving this .no faults showed on diagnostics .suspension stayed up for 10 days while parked up(tried it set at various heights) then drove it again on sunday for 17 miles ,then as i was going up into a car park ,suspension dropped again on all 4 corners at the same time .any ideas is there possibly a level sensor or valve that is acting up ?

    hi all still not solved this problem. audi mechanic found fault code saying there is an air leak, and has thoroughly checked and found no leak ?? suspension only goes down randomly while driving ? first time it was after braking fairly hard but only traveling about 20mph twice since i have been driving slowly on an incline , . it stays up all the time while parked up ,even for a week .whole car lowers on all four wheels ,
    really looking for help here.

    Might be worth speaking to Andy at www.bagpipingandy.com/ and see if he can offer an explanation / suggestion for resolving the issue.
