Discovery 3 Engine re-build

Yes mate not much left, getting there no lights so is on the mend I hope, what confuses me is yesterday i only changed the compressor basically 2 off one on, as you know only one hp pipe which wasn't leaking any way last night suspension stayed up perfectly, s

Sorry got cut off, still to run live data, keen to work out issue rather than throw parts at it, once suspension issues resolved most likely will sell it keep the auto, couldn't calibrate with autel this morning in touch with help desk, I have most likely done something wrong when registering I suspect, photo of height values all the best

That’s great news the list is getting shorter

Must confess I had a nightmare with my suspension which lead me to test each line one by one with an isolating valve and pressure gauge , allowed to split them in sections

Then raised the suspension to off road height , measured each wheel then removed the F26 fuse to stop the self levelling , fronts went down which after testing found the struts were leaking , replaced and moved on to other areas as I removed each section out of the equation

Fingers crossed it will soon be up and running my friend

Spot on the there mate with the +- 10% , did u try raising it to off road height then down to normal ride height to see if they will settle or constantly out by that far , assume it’s on level ground as I know ur very knowledgeable

Such a shame ur not closer as would have plugged my mx808 Autel in being a more capable scanner FOC for u

Know there are differences with the same white ap200 , but the calibration that works has the menu setting whilst others don’t

Have u tried deleting the software app and reinstalling it plse as maybe that will work for u ,have seen some not work on an iPad but does in iPhone

Hope that helps

Never thought of that will re install, pretty sure I have gotten all my suspension info from you mate, will fiddle with it futher this afternoon, yes shame you don't live round the corner although I might be a pain Lol, can always get mate from garage to calibrate, doing pre mot work/check on a range rover this afternoon mot later in week so will grab him one lunchtime if neccessary will try raising it and a little drive and recheck many thanks

Your so welcome and never a pain my friend , always a pleasure to help where I can

Indeed and that’s awesome u have someone that can plug there scanner in for u, all the best for the mot

Plse let us know of the findings of the abs module when u know, many thks

As suggested re-downloaded ap200 app on my phone, used wifes before as it was newer model, low and behold calibration works, so tried to go through instructions, threw up c1a00-54 control module, put this down to me messing with the ride height so had a cup of tea tried again this time worked enough to put light out but not spot on still lumpy ride, will run pressures again, may just buy a new compressor, anyway cut my losses for today, going to get a mate to help me check again the calibration, will let you have engineers report soon as I get it, have learned don't mess with air suspension if your not patient Lol

Yah, good news my friend and indeed so pleased it worked

Personally would get a new compressor , I bought a Dunlop which are a bit cheaper , mines been good as gold for 4+ years

Chat soon mate and look forward to seeing what the engineer report back

Oh dear no fault found back to drawing board?

Are the fuses in the battery junction box OK? a few years ago I had one with lots of odd air suspension problems, the 5A fuse was corroded (along with a few others but unrelated) due to the lid missing for a while, the owner had replaced it but not thought to mention it.... IIRC we were sporadically getting the control voltage dropping to 3 - 3.5V, the tech that initially looked at it thought it was the RLM but a replacement module didn't fix it, replacing the fuse & cleaning the fuseholder terminals did.
