My abc warning came on, and It was white. The back end is sitting low but there is no fluid on the ground. I drive though a big puddle last night if that helps.

Dead hooker in the trunk. Check for one. I may have left one of mine back there.

Thank me later.

Tavarish recommends getting a Mirage with 10 years of warranty

Whoa - DeMuro might be able to answer this question (Range Rover). Closest I ever came is helping a buddy change front struts. I am useless here.

Is the pump making noise?

No, I think it's either a accumulator or a sensor

Gut says pump, but it’s really hard to wager a solid guess without some more information. Check the fluid level, there are two ranges, engine off (aus unbeladen) and engine on (an unbeladen). Can you change the ride height by hitting the button? Does the message go away after cycling the key? How low was the back sitting? Was the front low also? What was the weather like (was it colder than normal?) and how long had it been sitting?

Normally I would just scan it and run a function test, inspect and check fluids, etc. But let’s see if we can figure this out without sending you into the shop again.

Rovers are air, totally different systems.

Fluid levels are normal, it was a bit chilly but not really cold. It hasn't been sitting very long. I looked on the forums, and it said if the warning was white or blue, it was minor. I hydroplaned across a puddle, so I wonder if it was a sensor or something. I think the abc forum said something about an accumulator.

Good luck buddy! Hopefully it won't be too terrible

I think this is less severe than the last one

They’re right it is a minor warning, but all that means is that you can keep driving. Red warning means stop driving. I would guess the fault code would either be related to system pressure or vehicle ride height.

Typically a failed accumulator will cause a light droning noise at certain rpm’s, like a PS pump low on fluid but not quite as loud, and a slight harshness/vibration that you can feel in the floor. They don’t usually cause one axle to drop. The fluid level would be down also to take up all the extra space in the accumulator. Think of them like shock absorbers for the hydraulic fluid, they smooth things out, but they don’t set ride height.

Can you change the ride height by hitting the button on the dash?

I don't know, I didn't check. The dealership already picked it up

Gotcha. Fingers crossed it’s cheap and easy!
