Hi
My mgf has decided that the offside rear corner wants to sag.
That corner seems a lot lower than the other corners.
I had the suspension pumped up about 4 months ago.
The car is kept in a garage and there does not aoppear to be any fluid on the floor.
Are there any suspension guros in nottingham who could have a look.
Could it be a leaking sphere or a pipe work leak
Cheers

If its in a garage you'll see the fluid on the floor.. It's glow in the dark green usually

I'd get the car out and jack it up and get one end on axle stands and have a good look around underneath

Mine did that same sad sag. I found it leaking at the pipe fitting into the sphere. The fluid was disappearing before it hit the floor. You should be able to examine the bottom of the sphere for telltale signs of green by taking off the road wheel. :yesnod:

There is a company who is re-furbishing spheres and re-gassing them, about £130 each or just under £400 for four.

Sound like you have lost the Nitrogen, if one corner has sagged!!
