Bentley Continental GT with front suspension failure. I found the suspension compressor to be at fault and replaced it.

    A somewhat related question: 2015 Flying Spur with next to no miles but had a rough life; I do not know the details. Front struts were just replaced at a third party shop who may have botched the job. The car pulls to one side when accelerating hard. When the car is raised, I measure THREE different heights at the 4 wheels (tire top to fender edge) The difference between the highest and the lowest corner is 1.5 inches!!! Any thoughts? Bad suspension valve module? Lacking strut calibration after installation? Past frame damage?

  • Thanks so much for your video, my Bentley front dropped after few days not driving, but when I started engine, it goes up again, is that normal?

    thanks for posting this. Now it's my turn. :-(
  • if this was the whole compressor issue, why only front was down?

    Really could use your input. I recently bought 2005 Bentley gt. Not knowing I did not put car into Jack mode and install lowering links. Now the rear is 4ins high and the front is slammed to the ground. Wondering if this is bad struts in the front due to not placing car in Jack mode?
