Hi, first time poster as I'm quite a new Range Rover owner and first time I'm having problems.

I've got a RHD 2004 Range Rover Vogue 4.2 V8 Supercharged, and am having problems with the Air Suspension.

It was all working fine until today - was in the desert, nothing to severe though, using the air suspension ride height adjuster a few times. Whilst driving back I noticed the car was leaning to the right, pulled over, and saw that the front right of the car was much lower than all the other wheels despite being in the normal position.

I selected the off-road (high) suspension position, and after a few seconds the car moved up, selected normal, lowered back down and drove home, although a couple of times the front right dipped, and then came up again a few seconds later!

Went back to the car about an hour after getting back, and it's obvious from the outside that it's leaning towards the front right like just that wheel is in the lowered position. Started up the engine and you could immediately hear hissing coming from the front right wheel.

Tried selecting lower, the whole car goes down, selected normal, the rear went up fine, but now both front wheels are still right down and the hissing sound is gone!

I'm assuming there's a leak in either the hose or the front right suspension. Is it ok to drive to the mechanic like this? Any idea of cost to fix?

Thanks in advance!
