S211 - Stop! Car too low.

[Timster]

Morning - above message came up this morning. Car looks a bit lower at the back than I've noticed before

It's not airmatic.

Going to plug in when I get home - see if anything shows up.

Any clues where to start before I go in blind?

Thanks.

The S211 still has rear air suspension regardless of whether the car has airmatic. If the car is too low then the most likely cause is an air leak from either a rear suspension unit or the pipework that feeds it.

Alternatively, the pump may have given up the ghost and can no longer inflate the suspension; they do fail from time to time. I am on my second pump, the first lasted less than five years; this one has done around six years so far.

Thanks.

The scanner comes up with code p1630- power train.

Any clues?
