Suspension is low
Hi
i was driving my car today and the car was wobbling. When i parked up i noticed that the driver side arch was almost touching the wheel,
I rang mobilo roadside recovery and they recovered my car and it is due in for the dealers to check under warranty.
Does anyone know why this could have happened? It was fine before, car is standard and does not have airmatic!
Will this all be covered under exteneded warranty?
Thanks
Surjit

yes it looks like that, do you have airmatic i just have standard sport suspension, how do you go about fixing it because i am taking it to the dealer tommorow so if its fixable at home let me know although i think its covered under warranty.

Mine works when it's over -5 degrees fahrenheit so I'll just mention it when going to the next regular service. I got airsprings only on the rears, I don't have the airmatic buttons in the center console.

You should consider the new 212 with something else than steel or Airmatic springs.
