E39 Self Levelling Suspension help!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HarryW]

Quick help required here chaps. The rear near side of my E39 Touring was sitting down almost on the tyre when I just looked at it in the car park . I assume there is something going on with the self levelling rear suspension . No warning light on, it came straight back up when I ran the engine after about 5 seconds of it pumping. I have noticed recently that the ride has been getting a little crashy at the rear of late .
Any idea as to what’s wrong, it is an easy fix, is it expensive, could it even be seal that has taken exception to todays heat , any ideas welcome.
I’m off on holiday on Friday so need to resolve it now!!
