Next time you stop your car, particularly when you have a boot full or 4 passengers, have a listen from that corner of the car. After a short time you'll hear a hiss. It's the air discharging from the self levelling suspension compressor which lives under your driver's side wing/bumper, and the tunbe is what the air discharges from. :y
