Hi,
recently I had one of the air suspension bags go on my disco, meaning that the drivers rear was on the bump stops (posted on here at the time so may be familiar to some).
Anyway, I changed out the bags on both sides of teh rear (surprisingly 'easy' job), and all seemed hunky dory,
anyway - now it appears that one side of teh car is higher than the other (drivers side if memory serves), although the pass side is not riding low, it just appears that the drivers side is high (if that makes sense)
anyone have any suggestions as to what the deal is - did the hight sensor get gubbed when the air bag on that side failed? could the compressor be doing something odd due to working too hard when there was a leak (not sure what though - if anything I would have thought it may underpressure due to being knackered)
Any suggestions welcome

Check that the height sensor mounting on the chassis is intact. the rubber mounting can split

Silly one but ...
have you checked that the 2 bags are properly seated? I had to lift mine right up then drop down carefully for the airbags to sit correctly.
