Well well well....very interesting

Is the 16bar a pressure you would expect from a new compressor at any time as long is not in operation in that time ???

If yes then I'm f***ed

Started with starting a car and letting it set for 3 minutes
I've got a slight slobe side ways on front of the garage setting off car by 7mm on one site as read in measuring blocks.

Starting pressure on Comfort was 4.56 bar

Then lowered it to dynamic and pressure after shutting off the valves was 3.25 bar

[IMG][/IMG]

Then lift and 2.28 bar

[IMG][/IMG]


NOW
From Dynamic (there is that slope issue if it matters) to Lift mode it took 1min 22sec !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From Dynamic to Comfort 38sec.


BUT
On the road everything is quicker than that surely, I never was waiting that long, 38sec, or was I??

Then pressure on Dynamic was 2.28 bar

[IMG][/IMG]

...and comfort just over 3 bar

Came across that fault during the check (could be after a recent lowering but I erased all the faults on the end), cleared it, the set to different levels and no error.

So...am I in s**t ????
How should I refer to that 16 bar value and values taken 5 minutes ago as above???
