2007 RRS 2.7 TDI HSE Suspension issues

Shugstar · Mar 23, 2019

I’ve just bought a RRS and parked it on the drive only to wake the next morning to find the rear suspension dropped as per the photo. The seller says this is normal but I have my doubts. Is this normal? Any advice would be appreciated.

I don't think that's normal. My D3 drops to access height but that looks uneven and on the bump stops at the back.

@gstuart will be able to help you as D3 and RRS are broadly the same.

Have you got warranty from the seller?

That was my thoughts as well. The seller has agreed to have it checked out by a garage and pay for the repair. I’m seriously not happy that he didn’t highlight this to me when I bought it 2 days ago but at least it looks like it will be sorted.

That's good then, let us know how you get on

Time to be happy then. Seller is sorting it, bonus. You've got your little RRS to enjoy, happy days. You have landyzone to turn to when things go wrong, all is good.

Hiya

Indeed doesn’t look right , maybe the rear valve block / leak on pipe or struts

At least the previous owner is going to sort it out

Thanks for the advice, turned out to be the rear valve block and rear passenger strut - all working now as it should - happy days.
