Symptoms: Rear sags after parking, 'Suspension control' fault message, car no longer sits level
from 100,000 km

!Adaptive dampers: premature wear on optional system

The optional dual-axle air suspension with adaptive dampers shows similar problems to the F series: dampers become oil-soaked, fault codes appear.

Symptoms: Suspension fault message, wallowing ride, unusual noises over bumps
