Could be that you just have a bad sensor on that side they need to be replaced I don't know if there is anybody that can check the sensor itself that is usually the cheapest place to start in that situation

Can you feel some hard jerking passing on bumpy road? Have the suspension checked.

HDC relies on the data from the ABS sensors also, so you should check the ABS sensor cables and that the sensors have not been disturbed (the cables run close to the brake wear sensors). I would bet that they have either disturbed or disconnected the ABS sensor or damaged the cable. It could also be a possibility that they disconnected the sensor, ran the vehicle then realized that it was disconnected, but the fault was triggered, and it may be a case of just having to reset the ABS or HDC system to clear the fault. To reset this fault requires Testbook/T4 or a non-oem software/hardware.

If the suspension is "hanging" on any wheel there is a sensor that detects it. Also if a shock absorber is not maintaining pressure it will show a suspension fault...Check it out!

Problems with the air suspension seem to be less frequent with the Sport than in previous Range Rover models, but they still do occur. One owner reports "Whenever my RRS is lowered to "access" level a suspension system fault message apprears.". Another reports " Had the RRS back less than 2 hours and another "suspension fault." Also kept receiving messages that the vehicle is raising slowly and vehicle will raise when system cools. Couldn't even drive because it wouldn't raise out of access mode. Anyway, back to the dealer. Picked the RRS up again today-dealer said the EAS compressor was faulty and replaced it. So far everything is ok." Overall, most of the problems seem to be related to bad suspension height sensors or bad compressors. Angus Wade of the Czech Republic had his suspension light come on when in Germany; it started yellow and then red, then disappeared when he stopped and restarted the engine -- and has not happened since. His dealer said they have seen this a bit.

Weak Compressor: An official Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) LS-204-004 addresses "ELECTRONIC AIR SUSPENSION (EAS) WARNING MESSAGE AND LAMP ILLUMINATION". This deals with the warning message "Suspension Fault - Normal Height Only" message appearing with the Air Suspension Warning Lamp on. Computer diagnosis shows pressure increasing too slowly or unable to pressurize, with no air leaks. The usual problem is the compressor exhaust valve sticking, causing an internal air leak when the compressor is active. The bulletin recommends renewing the air compressor (RQG500090 is the latest specification air compressor with a stronger exhaust valve return spring)and installing and updating the air suspension control module software using WDS disc 13 or later.

Suspension Fault Message (random): One owner reported getting random suspension fault messages on his brand new RR Sport purchased in June 2006, well after the fix was in for the weak compressor. His suspension Fault message and Suspension Warning Light (Amber) came on after 5 days of ownership. He stopped and restarted the car, which caused the light and message to disappear, but they came on again after 5 minutes. Later the same day, the warnings disappeared again.

I have heard that on 2006 models, EAS fault messages can be caused by an internal leak in the Air Suspension compressor exhaust valve. The fix is said to be replacing the compressor updating the software.

Hope helps.

Need to get the vehicle scanned for fault codes.
The most common issue is the air pump/compressor for the electronic air suspension.
Relatively easy to replace, but you still need to get the vehicle scanned for fault codes. Once the fault has been repaired, again you will need to get the faults cleared.
No really a DIY repair im afraid.

I have the same problem and I can't seem to find a solution. Help!

you can try turning the ignition on and off , only to position two ond off with out starting , between 20 - 30 times this sometimes confuses modules and causes them to clear faults , if not i would recomend getting it plugged in , if vehicle is not in warranty go to landrover specialist , much cheaper!!!!!
