Anti-sink sphere's flat. Replace it.

Is the car a VSX model ?
If so it will have a sport switch just in front of the handbrake
Need more info to answer, the anti sink sphere may well be flat but
this alone will not cause the problem you are having.

You're thinking of Hydractive.
The anti-sink sphere came in around the time of the first facelift
(chevrons moved from bonnet to grille), and is up around the rear subframe.

cheers m8 will try it, but it only happened after renewing a hyd pipe
to the sphere on the front of engine and if i release the bleed screw
on this unit it stays up ok for a day or so is this for the same reason
once up its fine all the time its running then stays up when switched
off and also all night untill its started again then it drops and
relifts but very quickly,thanxs,
