    Defect Notice #001




    got it thursday night going to the missus house, wasnt really surprised, nor upset, nor shocked, took it on the chin and told them thank you, happy Easter
    he then explained after the defect how hes a car enthusiast and said if i really want it "that" low, then i should get the hydraulic air bag things that go up and down.......... i said thats an awesome idea but unfortunetly after the new modification i just purchased i cant afford hydraulic airbag things

    got me for under 100mm (not air ride)
    tyres need to fit properly
    engine bay wires fastened (which they were but not connected to the body skin)



    HAPPY EASTER

    Which car were you in? Or was this some late april fools because you then lifted the car with the press of a button?

    Why didn't you just raise it to 4wd spec? Or is it not as simple as that.

    You're "1 canary" low now!

    Why does it sag? Leaking air?

    He didn't give you a chance to simply lift it up (on air)?
    At least that should be an easy defect to clear.

    Just thought I'd chime in here. If you just raised it in front of him, you'd essentially be shooting yourself in the foot as he'd then say, oh airbags, then hit you with a full inspection and you'd require an engineer the setup with auto levelling mechanism, and if he had fbss setup, then you'd have to get rid of that too.
