fault on suspention



does anyone know what this problem is, please see link to veiw fault lights in photo. The car will drive ok for a day or a week or two weeks and then suddenly these lights come on and the suspention drops down. the lights stay on while driving. The car can then re-set its self until the light come on againt and the suspention drops. There are no leaks in the suspention, I have evn had a new suspention cylinder fitted. it seems to happem whenever it wants to.

Have the fault codes read as a first step.

I have had them read and they are not mentioned as a fault.

Could be lack of language understanding, but I'm not sure I understood.

What tool was used to read the codes and what codes were read, including pending ones?
A D3 with no active fault codes at all, unless recently cleared is unusual. But it needs to be a proper diagnosing tool for LR

It could be a wiring fault or a component fault, so some further leads that can help you trace the cause of the problem would be helpful. The dash lights just tells you that there is a problem, not what is causing it, but when they come on, there is usually one or more fault codes stored as well.

Most important that a correct tool such as an IID is used to read the codes, or something specific for D3s more complex electronics than a simple OBDII tool. This will save a huge amount of time and possibly wasted parts
