Hi All,
Just joined despit owning and loving my Manual V70r for a little over a year now but really glad to be part of the community.

Searched round for over a year to find one in good condition and reasonable mileage and I think Ive got a nice one but not without issues.

I have been slowly going through the suggestions for a 'stage zero' I found on switching lanes in the US and have done the PCV, full service, new brakes, replaced the transfer sleeve with an uprated one from PDV Motorsport in the US ehich seems to be working well. Spark plugs have been changed. I haven't done the ignition coils yet and will be doing the transmission fluid and haldex service soon.

I have recently noticed that the suspension isn't sitting level on the rear and having checked underneath, the springs look to be intact and there doesnt appear to be any leaks from the shocks. No warnings on the dash and the comfort,sport and advanced modes seem to work as they should.

Could anyone point me in the direction of the right thread or offer any advice on this please?

Thanks in advance.

Congrats on the purchase!

Just to make sure: on level ground, which corner can you measure it sitting lower than the others?

On that corner (or on all) when you look at the shock body, can you see any wetness that may be the sign of fluid leaking out of the shock?

How many miles does the car have / is the suspension original?

Thanks for the reply @LawDog. Its the passenger rear. Ive checked the shocks and no sign of wetness. The springs look fine. Just sitting lower than the opposite side 🤷🏻‍♂️
