I keep losing air suspension lift option on acceleration

Would that be like doing a 0-60 run type acceleration? You mentioned the level sensors, and that might be the issue, although I would have thought that if there was issues with one of them regarding readings, it might flag up one of the suspension lights.

I can't think how mechanically a level sensor can get 'stuck', if it still attached properly, so maybe a dodgy connection due to water ingress, or water ingress into the actual electronics.

Do you have VCDS or other diagnostics tool that you could use? I suspect there's bound to be measuring blocks in module 34 (Level Control) that you could check for the four sensors, to see if they are all within the same tolerance. In theory, you should also be able to check these values whilst cycling through the various suspension settings. Then again, they might all show up as fine whilst stationary. VCDS does allow you to log data, so maybe you could start logging the four sensors, go for a normal drive, and try to replicate the issue, and then check the results.
