VDP Issues

MrTJT · 12-20-2022, 02:40 PM

Hoping someone has some insight for me, I have a 16 750 and I keep getting a chassis code. It seems to happen when temperatures outside are below freezing. I did have to replace my air ride compressor a little over a year ago so I checked all my wiring connectors and air lines and everything seems to be fine. But, while the code is present there’s a giant difference in ride quality, I can tell it is not adjusting as I drive. I did read the codes and it states ride height adjustment implausible. Any help would be appreciated.

Does it go away or stay on? Only reason I ask is bc your oil temp gauge shows you are still at cold start level and the motor hasn’t warmed up yet

And a word of advice. Don’t run these cars on less than a quarter of a tank of gas.

Why is that?

Because they like to drink 93 octane.
And everything runs better when it maintains proper fuel level and never sucking for fumes at anytime. imo it’s just nature of owning a German car but to each their own of course
