Seems to do this when parked up with engine off. feels nice and level and smooth when driving though. I have 'lubed the front struts under the covers to keep the rams moving as my previous XM used to suffer from 'stiction' on the struts. WD40 soon had it smooth again.Dieselman wrote:Looks like it's riding a bit high at the front.

Re: My 2.1 XM auto
It definitely looks high though. Measure from the flat of the front subframe to the ground, it should be 141mm.
