My 2004 Continental GT has a height warning light on and the front is very low.The' to low warning 'has come on when the cars moved.

Any thoughts on what's wrong?
Time to start bottom lip wobbling in unison with my wallet?

Thanks!

Hi. There are a couple of possibilities. Either a failed air compressor, failed air shocker or an air pipe somewhere.

Have you tried to raise the ride height to see if it works. Just in case you don't know how, this is how you do it.

With the engine running, press the button with the car logo next to the aerofoil button. Here's a picture;

After pressing this button you will get an indication on the infotainment screen showing the two settings, low or high. Turn the big infotainment knob clockwise and it should go to high.
It should raise the car by about an inch or so.
You could measure the tyre to arch gap just to make sure but it should be quite apparent.

Hope that helps and good luck.

P.S. I know a very exceptional Bentley Indie near Crewe if you are in the region.

Hi,
Thank you very much for your advice and even sending the photo really is such a great help.

It's off on Monday to get checked out.

Have a great weekend,

David.
