rear suspension overpressure relief 300td

sounds like I need to get the car on ramps,start it and mess with the adjustment arms and linkage.I think the car was "overloaded"when chain -racheted down to an auto transporter.After being unloaded and started the rear of the car proceeded to jack itself up higher than I ever thought was possible with this suspension system.If i wanted a Citroen I would have gotten one...Anyway,at least I know the system works.Actually driving it now one literally gets bounced into the ceiling after hitting the smallest bumps...uber-crazy

Sounds like the tow truck driver attached to the sway bar and pulled the control valve lever out of adjustement. review the manual on adjusting the control valve to sway bar lever.
