My car goes into the raised mode, but aútomatically defaults back to normal after 30 sec. It won't go back into raised unless it's stopped, and holding the button down makes no difference.

This is a nuisance when drivíng in floods....any ideas?

As a guide the front values should be set at 176 +or-6mm and the rear 131 +or-6mm.
Matbe going off topic a little!

Hi Tim, you say it's a nuisance when driving through floods: what speed are you going? The car drops from High to Mid-High at speeds above 6mph and from Mid-High to Normal at speeds above 26mph. I know this because the lower button failed and after putting the car into High (to clear the kerb on my steep drive) the only way I could get the suspension back to Normal was to achive the speed mentioned above.
By the way, I replaced the switch tonight and all works well again.
Regards,
Martin
