looking for some info on my sister's HSE...it has a suspension fault. the rear will raise and lower normally via the dash switch, but the front is stuck in the raised position. Even driving down the road, over 30mph the front will not return to "normal" position. thanks for any assistance.
Take a look at the height sensors on the front, its possible they are either damaged or installed in correctly. if they are not, then look at the connectors for damage and if that is good, have the codes read to see which one is actually bad.

This may or may not help. RangeRovers.net has a nice detailed site for common problems with your style Rover. A lot has changed since the 03 models though... There was a little paragraph in the EAS section about an issue like this. Hope this helps!
Front/Rear Imbalance
Earl Thiel reports: "My '03 Range Rover from the beginning (I now have 43k mi) has had a problem with the EAS in that it will intermittently raise the front of the car and not the rear. No idea why. Could be parked-I get in and start and it will pop up-leaving the rear down so the car appears to "squat". At the dealership now for the fourth time to try to get them to fix this problem. Their latest idea is to replace all 4 height sensors. Upon measuring, the front end has over 2 inches greater clearance than the rear when this phenomenon occurs." This problem can be caused by excessive pressure in the system leading to premature failure of the rear air bags. A service campaign was undertaken (April 2003) to address this by installing a pressure relief valve (MAV500010K) between the compressor and the air tank on vehicles 3A101029 to 3A106310. However, this valve in turn could cause its own problems -- see above.
