2008 X5 Noise - XBimmers.com

ABRUX5 · 07-20-2012, 01:27 PM

I have a 2008 4.8i X5 with approx 50K miles on it. Today when I opened the car door, there was a loud venting sound as if the car was releasing pressure. It came from the vents in the back next to the third row seats. This continued for about 5 mins and then stopped.
Any one else seen this phenomena in an X5?
Thanks

Pretty sure that is the self-levelling suspension...
