Is my suspension Correct ?

Hi guys , I was wondering if anyone could advise me on my 2011 tdv8 vogue suspension.
My question is this, should all four corners of the vehicle rise at the same rate ? My car seams to do a bit of a seesaw kind of dance !! Shocked Front usually is first up followed by the rear.......it all settles okay in the end (though I'm sure the rear is a little low compared to the front....I have yet to measure the heights).

One job I have not completed yet is a compressor re build , do you think its worthwhile doing this ?

Kind regards,

Cozzy.

The see saw dance of front to back is totally normal when raising , with mine the front goes first , followed by the back, has done it since new, when lowering it is more or less all four corners go down at the same time .

It's normal. I believe it's designed that way to put less strain on the air compressor and not deplete the air tank too quickly. 2017 4.4 SDV8 Autobiography

It's designed to raise the rear first, to stop headlamps (when lit) dazzling on coming traffic.

@ Cavalier

Well, both my FFRR's must have forgotten that one, front up first then the back, more slowly.

Probably a "road rage" setting I need to change with the iiDTool Twisted Evil .
Experience is the only genuine knowledge, but as time passes, I have forgotten more than I can remember Wink

Rear first here also - the idea is the front lamps don't dazzle when rising (as mentioned by Cavalier).
