Left Side Suspension Sagging After Coding - Coincidence?

2015 X5 xDrive50 w/M Sport. Coded the car earlier today with Binmercode and after I was done, I noticed that the left side of the car is sagging quite considerably and air compression noises coming from the left rear.

I’ve read all about the air suspension failures and wondering if coincidentally this went bad since I had to turn the ignition on and off several times to reset the ECUs, or if there is anything that may have happened during the coding process that caused this?

No error codes or warning lights at all.

Any ideas?

Did you check the air bags for a leak?

No codes thrown... sounds like a BMW🤔

Sounds like it but I haven’t gotten in there yet. I have an extended service contract so not worried about having to do a DIY fix but more afraid of them blaming it on the coding if they were to find out (especially considering that it just started) otherwise it’s sounding like I need to take it in. Wanted to make sure I didn’t inadvertently jack something up during the coding.
