Default LR3 Suspension Drop - But not with fuse / power pulled

Hey guys

05' LR3 w/ 200km

Weird situation that worsened after installing the Lucky8 2.5 rods.

The suspension drops a lot over night particularly in the front, but when the fuse is pulled or battery disconnected the vehicle hardly drops at all.

Any tips for diagnosis? I Didn't notice any leaks when spraying the front air block or top of the bags with soapy water althought there could still be some. I do have a spare front air block to install.

​​​
Thank you

Install front block. Keep in mind the system is not an exact science. I have a leak in a front bag, some mornings its lower some not. Clearly you have a leak, could be valve block could be a strut. I always recommend that one rebuilds the compressor dryer first then wait a couple weeks for any desiccant to blow clean before replacing a valve block. Because when they "fail" its usually descent debris that gets onto the seals and creates tiny little leaks. So if the dryer is not services, your new block will likely leak again soon enough.
