Suspension problem

[Keith1]

Hi, just wondered if anyone could help me with a problem that has just started on my Range Rover P38 1988.

Whilst driving along yesterday, whenever I pulled up at a junction or traffic lights the front suspension kept lifting and lowering as though it was trying to reset itself. I pulled over and pressed the suspension lift/lower button and it sat down on its lowest setting. When I tried to lift it up again, it wouldnt. Setting off again, it lifted up as I was driving along.

I parked up at home and I pressed the suspension button again on its highest setting and the warning light (an arrow pointing to a car) came on on the dashboard.

Any help or comments would be appreciated as I am a novice with Range Rovers.

Sounds like your front air bag has gone and put the system in hard fault mode
best to ask over in the Range Rover section of the forum
