Hi all, been a long time since I been here and I have a huge problem that hopefully someone on here could help with. My cars alternator recently packed it in and before I realised what the problem was I drained the battery dead flat, to the point where I must have damaged or broken something. I struggled to get the car home with another battery as at this point it was already acting strangely. The car turns over but runs very rough and needs load on the accelerator to stay on, take my foot off the gas and it stalls. All warning lights on dash now illuminate when car is started. Done diagnostic check (bridging TE1 and E1) and for some reason no error codes show. Anyway they're problems I'll deal with eventually if I can get the following issue sorted: my cars on the road in front of my old house that burnt down recently and needs to be moved to new house to be fixed, how ever the rear suspension is completely lowered after sitting there for a month and the front is quite low, to the point that I won't be able to get it on a tow truck or car trailer. I can start the car but as I said it will not idle and for some reason the compressor will not kick in to pump up the car to a manageable height. Never had issues with air suspension yet, no leaks and compressor always worked fine. Now, Is there a way to manually raise the car or perhaps supply auxiliary power to the compressor to raise it? I have no idea how I'll be able to move my car in its current state, I believe compressor should be fine and that the problem is related to what ever I stuffed up by pushing (as in stressing) the car home with the dodgy idle after battery went flat, but can't understand why? any help would be greatly appreciated. Apologies for the long post and cheers in advance for any advice that can be offered. Car is a celsior. Thanks Adam
