I've looked up this on here but haven't found my exact problem
When the suspension is up it can stay up for a few weeks then I'll go to get in here and shes on the bump stops. If I leave the doors open and engine running for 10 mins or so it sometimes pumps up sometimes doesn't. if I drive off no messages or anything its a horrible ride for a while then it eventually pumps up. Any ideas ?

Compressor knackered or leaking diaphragm valve. Or both. Look in the "How to" section.

How long is a piece of string? Make sure you refit ALL the solenoid coils and valves back where they came from. Mark them or do them one at a time, DON'T over tighten the screws on the solenoid valves. No more than an hour or so maybe longer if you have never done one before. There is a valve block rebuild guide in my "How To". Good luck

Compressor seals are usually seperate as is the valve block diaphragm.
Make sure the valve block is not full of white powder, if it is you will need to carefully clean it and replace the dryer.

Depends if the missus is a bit dry or not.
You don't use anything on the valve block

No just the valve block. If you are doing the compressor get a new cylinder and piston seal. But not the Dutch one.

Read Wammers "How To", check compressor output. any message on the message centre? What lights on the EAS indicator?

So, no pump pressure or a major leak, have you tested the compressor output? It should not be possible to stop the air with a finger ver the pipe.
