Hello.
I am nowfrequently receiving a Suspension Fault message. I have attached a video of the 4x4 Info screen. In the video I am driving the vehicle up my driveway slowly for about 8ft and on avery slight incline. I then put it in reverse and drive backwards 8 feet.
Watch the drivers rear tire on the right hand side of the screen. It goes all the way up, then thebeep you hear is when the Suspension Fault indicator comes on, then it drops all the way down. The second beep is when I put it in reverse. Then the tire/suspension seems to reset itself as i slowly drive backwards and then theSuspension Faultindicator goes off.

The suspensiondoes lift and lower after this happens, even when I am driving but it happens more often when I am stopped. The drivers rear tire on the 4x4 info screen is constantly floating up and down as the other 3 stay solid.
I took it into my local LR dealership service dept today. They obviously did not diagnose it correctly as they told me it was the battery. Icould tellafter 5 seconds of driving away that it was not fixed. The battery may have needed to have been replaced but not to solve this problem.
Unfortunately I am now not confident that the service writer or technicians at my local LR service department have the ability to fully understand the problem, diagnose it correctly and provide a solution. Plus it is an imported LRfrom the U.S into Canadaand I get the feeling that I am not being treated the same as if it were a local LR vehicle, but I will save that discussion for another post.
Has anyone had this issueor could provide me some information to bring to the service department? I'm not a mechanic myself but it seems that it would likely be a faulty sensor.
Thank you.

I assume your lr3 is still under warranty? It doesnt matter if its from the us or canada, the dealer is responsible for its repair. If they cant fix it, there are factory reps sent out to resolve these problems. I would leave the car at the dealership, requesting a loaner untill repaired. this is simple stuff!
