if i let my car locked out is not getting into economy mode next day - i didnt try letting my car unlocked for a day or a night - i`ll checkI leave my car unlocked and the keys in all day at work, it never goes into economy mode unless I leave the CD player running.
this is normal especially when you use handbrake, but if will make the same when engine is running withe wheels centred there is a problem with your front corrector. i`ve get rid off by replacing it.The pump on mine is completely inactive after locking the car - they will dance around if the car isn't locked, especially if parked on an incline or for some reason if the steering is turned a long way from centred.
as you can notice in my pics there is a difference between front and rear and when I unlock it pump workin a little over 5 seconds and again when I sit in the car.After being left for a couple of days, it is no different than overnight. On unlocking the suspension motor runs for around 3~5 seconds, then again when I sit in the car, before it is started.
before remounting right front cylinder it was going down in less than 2 minutes with engine off or on (if the car is unlocked and engine off will correct the height for 3-4 times then stops - if the car is locked out it remains low)How long has your car been behaving the way it is viorelovidiu?
last owner doesnt know since is has been doing like this - he considered that was perfectly normal behavior so initially I believed this. After a few days I get stuck in traffic and i noticed how my car rises every 2 minutes till a moment when "she" completly forgot to get up and it`s was shakin me so badly over bumps so, i stopped imediately because I couldnt control it.
I anticipate that it was happening for 2-3 years and the guys at service after replacing my BHI without no reason - now they are convinced that hidraulic cylinders are affected because of very long period of inactivity.
