Suspension height change - even?
Hi folks, first time poster here. Been lurking for a wee while whilst researching whether or not I want to take the plunge on a D4.
Always liked the look of them and with the recent addition of a large dog to our two kid family and the fact that we all pack up and head off to Ireland to visit family 3/4 times a year means we need something large!
I've been thinking about a T5/T6 transporter or a D4. I know they are entirely different beasts....
Anyway, I've the opportunity to buy a 2016MY Landmark for a great price. It's (to my eyes at least) immaculate and being the Landmark has all the bells and whistles I could ever need.
Had it out on a 24 hour loan at the weekend and all was fine except for one thing (and this may be normal but I'm just not aware). I was playing with the suspension, raising and lowering it to check all worked fine and the only thing I noticed was that when changing ride height the front and back didn't raise at exactly the same time. Could be as simple as the air compressor is in the boot and the hoses to the front suspension is longer so takes slightly longer to raise the front. It's this normal? TIA

When lowering, front goes before back, when raising, back goes up first. Stops the lights blinding oncoming traffic! Perfectly normal. Richard
