Over a couple of days if it's not had any use the rear offside corner of my
P38 seems to sink more than the others. On starting it comes back level
quite easily and drives fine. Any ideas?

I would think you have a leaking air spring, but quite slight by the sound of it. I suppose you might
have a valve block problem venting that spring only.

The leak one is easy, soapy water & lots of it!

The valve blck can be harder to find.

Well, the timing's right for a leaking airspring...
