[QUOTE="Fastphil, post: 13131435, member: 39941"] It's been a while since the last major update. Mainly because the Cobra has been working well, so there just hasn't been much to report on. I also bought a house over the winter, so now I have my own garage in which I can work on and park the car! [ATTACH=full]470195[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]470196[/ATTACH] One issue I was having last summer was an error for the left rear ride height sensor on the eLevel system. I just didn't have time to check it out, but the air system was still working well. Just when one of the sensors bug, the preset heights don't work, but the height adjustability is still fully functional. This weekend I finally brought my toolbox home from my friend's garage, so I was able to pull the left rear wheel off the car to check out the sensor problem. I don't know how it happened, but the sensor's swingarm got bent in two places, and the mounting tab on the upper upper A-arm was also bent. The pushrod had become disconnected from the upper A-arm, so the sensor wasn't reading the actual height of the left rear corner. Instead, the sensor was just flopping around and giving erroneous data to the ECU, so the ECU would adjust the air pressure randomly based on those false readings. [ATTACH=full]470197[/ATTACH] Right now I'm in the process of contacting Accuair about what I can do to fix this. They've suggested that I could just bend the swingarm straight again and I should be OK. It's a free fix, so I'll give that a shot next weekend when I get back home. [ATTACH=full]470198[/ATTACH] In other news, since I got the car back on the road this spring, I've been driving it lower than I did in the past.
