Ride height issue
Hello my Friends,
Yesterday on my way home I received the "CHASSIS SYSTEM FAILURE" dash fault. I had a 1 mile drive home and got there fine with no other warnings. I ran my iCarsoft tester on it and only got codes 002086 and 00208A. The car was at normal ride height when I went to bed.
This morning, my front end is now at the max height. Rear end is at normal height. All fuses and relays were checked and fine. I can change the ride height via button. I can put vehicle into sport plus and it will adjust, lowering both front and back (front seems a bit higher than standard ride height / rear going to sport plus height). In any of the mentioned settings, the vehicle remains level side to side. For some reason, the front end seems to be confused and is just extremely high. Thoughts on how to get it to normal height again?

Try to look in the wheel wells where the height sensors are on both sides and see if they are intact.

I had that problem after I replaced the compressor. The front and back levels were not lining up.
The Indy shop told me to disconnect the battery and wait 45 min to reset everything. Then drive slowly 20'-30' down my driveway and the suspension should reset. I did this and it reset almost immediately and have not had a problem since.

Drivers side front ride height / level sensor was seized and the little plastic connector broke where it is connected to the control arm. Cleaned it up and added some anti-seize lube and zip-tied the sensor into place as a temporary hold until the replacement sensor arrives in a few days!!

00208A. The car was at normal ride height when I went to bed.
My bets, your valve block no longer work properly, soma valves don't respond or are v slow. That would cause your error too.
thats without piwis2.
If u can, get piwis2 c9nnected, scan air susoension, do a test, it will tell u what not working right...my bets, valve block.
