If you bought this used, is there a chance somebody installed a lowering module? I believe it would be behind the passenger side panel in the cargo area next to the audio controller system.

thanks very much for your reply scott . iv had a look at the back of the car and i can find a small volkswagen silver (module) i think its about as big as a dvd box but its on the right hand side (drivers side) and it does look like its part of the air suspension loom . does any body on hear have any diagrams or know where i could find a diagram of the full air suspension and wiring so i can trace the fault . thanks any advise would be great .

hi guys update went to jbh porsche and ferrari specialist in the uk .. they plugged into it and it was the rear passenger side level sensor that was down .. the rest of the suspension and compressor is all fine . so just need to order a new sensor and all should be good
