Default C5 AIR SUSPENSION ECU FAULT

Hi all excuse my ignorence if I get something wrong here but I am new to the C5 ALLROAD as I have just bought one and got done by the private seller someone had fudged the air leak on the shocks at the fronts and I have just had them replaced, it was an expensive job.

My question is when I frist had the daignostic done the ecu came up with a fault which has since dissappreare before the replacemnet of the shocks were done,I had the overheating one due to the leak but had another unidentfiable error "ECU INTERNAL FAULT" the other fault codes were
01400 suspension level control
01577 turn off due to over temp
01772 singnal from level control pressure sensor intermitant.

Now that the main air suspension has been taken care off I would like to monitor the ecu myself,can anyone suggest a good software and the type of lead that I will need to run the check from time to time myself rather that pay each time for the check,it is a lovely car and I have had it only two weeks and intend to keep it forever.Any help feedback would be really appreciated.I do understand the risk of the software and chnages that you can make but just want to keep general check on my car.Thanks IN advance

you should post this on the allroad forum - they'll be better able to help you there.

Default Grapeking is right about ar forum, but check the front left suspension level

control sensor. I had to replace ours after replacing the suspension bags (not caused by the bag failures). It can also cause a headlight leveler error. Easy DIY, under 30 minutes.
