I've had my XJ8 for all of 3 days now and I have a "air suspension fault" and would like to know how I might go about reading/pulling the actual fault code. I might also
like to reset the code, if possible, to see if it was just a glitch or something I may mave done. I noticed the fault just after I pulled out of the driveway leaving work for home.
I had stared the car, after it had sat for 7-8hrs, and drove off. Could I have driven off too soon? I seem to remember reading that the suspesion might loose air while sitting but I
thought this was only ater several days or weeks. Anyway any help will be greatly appreciated. I have the Jaguar Select Warranty but I would just like as much information as possible before
I call the Dealer. Other than this I really love the car......

 

it probably needs an air suspension pump.. or relay.. jag can only pull and delete code.. some times the pump does not pump enough within the first couple minutes.. setting a code..

 

If it is a shock, get ready to pony up. Although available today, reman air shocks. $700 or so a piece. Better than $1000 for the new ones though. I think Select pays for compressor but not shock. But I am not 100% on the shock thing as it is not a regular shock.

 

Took the car by the dealer, turns out the problem was with a leaking valve block. They had the car for two days, provided me with a loaner, and fixed the car under the "select warranty" with nothing out of my pocket. All in all a pretty painless experience

 

Good for you. Valve block is a rare problem.
