Default Lets off air when I park, suspension settles

Had my LR3 about a month. Sometimes when I park it and lock up shortly after there is a puff of air from the rear passenger side and the suspension settles about 12mm lower on that side. It is often leaning slightly when it has been parked a while. This doesn't seem right somehow. Any ideas?

put it on a staight piece of asphalt and open the hood and disconnect the battery. measure the heights from the center of the hub to the top of the fender well and then disconnect the battery. if it changes overnite its got a leak. if it doesn't then do the same with the battery hooked up to see if it changes. if itdoesn't then its dependant on the hill where it could be parked. They try to level themselves over time so a vehicle on a hill will go down on the front to match the lower rear.

That's normal. Mine does the same, and I've had it checked. It will go back as soon as you turn on the car or start driving.

Mine does it as well. It lets out some air, maybe for 2-3 seconds. I assumed it was leveling or calibrating the system.
