Somehow he has lost ALL dedication and focus. Notification to ABORT strenuously recommended. The demise of M. Autovlog in full force. 🗣️. 👉 📈. 🔍. 🤔

Your rubbing on your fender liner have the same problem on my s7. This unfortunately may be the start of a failing air suspension starts with the level control sensors first then leaking air struts each one from audi is $2500 for the front pay attention to the speedometer if it keeps saying controlling level of car or ride height to low Deff get ready to drop a shit ton of money towards dat suspension.

Any chance this car was in an accident before you purchased it? If the left front was in a minor "fender bender", it might bee slightly out of alignment........frame....or fender alignment. That would explain why it is only on the left and not bi-lateral.

@Davidmccrossen Жыл бұрын

It's possible with age of the car that the air bags are dry and cracking. The right one might be leaking air just enough that it's not supporting the cars weight when you make the left turn. I would look into getting all the air bags replaced.
