    Rear suspension hard

    2017 HSE Lux
    Ride heights look ok but rear suspension feels very hard and rattles your teeth if you hit a decent bump

    Just towed with it for first time and it was really awful to drive , very bumpy and porpoising (best way to describe repeated bouncing)

    No warnings on dash
    Anyone experienced this or have a solution ?
    Thanks

    Silly question…Is the air suspension actually working? Normal ride height is default without air….but very harsh and lumpy.

    Anything to do with tyre pressures ? I always put the rear pressures up to 50pis when we have the caravan on the back, tried it once without blowing them up as I was only 1hr from home and found it very floaty on the back end.

    Just a thought

    Did a quick measure from top Of tyre to wheel arch and discovered one corner is 30mm above the other side and rear are different too
    Need to get it plugged in and recalibrated I think
