Mini Clubman Air Suspension Problems

Alright, I'm officially losing it with my 2007 Mini Clubman diesel! The air suspension is totally borked. It won't lift, it's leaning like crazy, and the speedometer is flashing errors. Plus, the low beams are pointing to the sky or ground, depending on the lean. The error memory points to a malfunction. I'm betting it's the suspension pump, but could it be something simple like a cable or plug? Anyone seen this before?

Whoa, sounds familiar! My Mini Clubman had similar issues a while back – leaning to one side, ride height all messed up. Have you checked for any obvious air leaks around the air struts? Also, I got error messages in the speedometer. I was getting worried about the suspension pump.

Air leaks I can check, but how did you pinpoint the suspension pump? I'm getting an error in the speedometer plus the low beams are off, so that sounds super similar. How did you fix it?

Yeah, the error message plus the leaning was what made me think it was suspension-related. Honestly, I didn't fix it myself. Took it straight to the workshop, and they sorted it out. But definitely check those connections first, could save you a ton of cash. If not, best get it checked out. Don't want to risk damaging the air struts or anything else.

You're a lifesaver! Turns out, it was a dodgy cable. 95€ later, and my Clubman is back to its old self. Appreciate the help!
