Anyone else’s compressor running like crazy since the last update?

I've definitely noticed it adjusting a lot at every stop light. I used to see this once or twice on a drive, now it's at least twice on my way to/from work every day.

Good to know it’s not just mine and more than likely 100% related to the update to smooth out the bumps. Not sure I’m cool with this one because now the lifespan of the compressor will more than likely decrease drastically

I wonder what the operating lifetime of the suspension air compressor is? If it is anything similar to the heat pump, which operates nearly continuously when the vehicle is on, then a few extra minutes a day shouldn't have any real impact on it's total lifespan.

Yeah I believe it was made by ARB which is one of the best in the biz for air compressors. But I’ve seen a few posts about the compressor dying even before this update….

Try turning off auto height adjustment to see if the behavior changes. It's possible you have a leak. And since software updates happen every four weeks, any problem you notice will ALWAYS occur shortly after an update, whether it was caused by the update or not.

Are you noticing your suspension adjusting more? I swear mine is adjusting every stoplight or at least every other stoplight. The car has never been like this

It's hard to say. Mine is in Auto for efficiency so some of the adjusting is from that function.

When I got the R1S originally, it would adjust a lot, which annoyed my wife. Subsequent updates seemed to resolve the issue, until this most recent one. Now it is adjusting far more than ever. I've always kept it on auto height adjustment, so I feel the change in behavior is due to the update. I hope they fix this. I hear creaking sounds when it adjusts, makes me worried that all these additional adjustments may be detrimental?

I’m feeling the same way. This suspension already screams unreliability, don’t need it adjusting for nothing
