Some months ago I had the rear self leveling shocks replaced because they were knackered. Since then I have had problems getting the rear ride height right, although after some weeks it did seem to settle down. During this time it wanted to step out on corners even at low speeds but this disappeared. Having been told to try the ride height level sensor I found it seems to work but the car is still high up.
I measured the distances from the floor through the center of the wheel to the edge of the wheel arches and they are as follows:
n/s/r 68cm, o/s/r 70cm, o/s/f 67cm and n/s/f 65.6cm (although this tyre is pretty worn compared to the others which are about 8 months old.)
To look at it, it looks cockled at the back lol. Had a word with the mechanic who changed the rear shocks and all I get is excuses about vac pipes - leaks and maybe the sensor being at fault and I have had enough,
I just want it to be right.
Also whether or not this is connected the display on the dash has been saying for two weeks something about a
low beam fld vision? I take it this is something to do with the headlights or a sensor? Can anyone help with either problem because I don't know what to do next?
Thanks.
