That sounds awfully familiar. I had a similar issue with my Audi, though it wasn't a Roadster. The air suspension kept giving me grief, leaning to one side like a tired dog. Have you checked for any obvious air leaks in the system? It could be something as simple as a cracked hose or a loose connection. Think of it like a leaky faucet, even a small drip can cause big problems over time. Also, does the suspension pump sound like it's working overtime?

Air leaks were my first thought, but I couldn't find any obvious ones. The pump does seem to be running more than usual. You mentioned a loose connection – any specific areas I should focus on?

Given that the pump is working overtime and you're not finding any major air leaks, I'd definitely focus on the electrical connections to the compressor and the air suspension control module. In my case, it turned out to be a corroded connector that was causing intermittent issues. The dealer initially wanted to replace the entire suspension system, but thankfully, a good mechanic found the real problem. It might be worth having a workshop take a look, especially if you're not comfortable digging into the wiring harness yourself.

Huge thanks for the input. Turns out it was a defective plug connection, just like you thought. 95€ and the Roadster is back to its old self.

La mia Mini Roadster del 2013 mi sta dando problemi. Le sospensioni pneumatiche sembrano completamente fuori uso. Non si alza più, si inclina da un lato come se fosse malata di mare e sul cruscotto compaiono continuamente messaggi di errore. L'altezza di marcia è irregolare, gli anabbaglianti puntano verso il cielo o verso terra e c'è una spia che mi fissa. La memoria degli errori indica un guasto al compressore. Qualche idea?
