2 things happened today..

#1 EAS plummeted to the bumpstops on the way home..

#2 some clueless cow in L322 was parallel parking behind me and shunted me in the arse which has warped my bumper all to shít..

Had to bite my teeth with that one..

I'm pretty sure the valveblock needs rebuilding, as the compressor was scalding hot when I pulled over...

So it must be leaking, as the bags are fine..

Well

Probably not now, after driving home 30mi on the bumpstops!

Bastard!

don't call him names

Removing the air filter from the valve block will confirm over activity while using your bus.
If it continues to fill and cut off there could be a height sensor issue or even a leak somewhere.
I bet your seal has given up on the compressor

Not been your day mate

Apparently, this is why we love them.

I think it works like slot machines, its called Variable Ratio reward, see below;

In operant conditioning, a variable-ratio schedule is a schedule of reinforcement where a response is reinforced after an unpredictable number of responses. ... Gambling and lottery games are good examples of a reward based on a variable ratio schedule.

Soooo, we are actually becoming addicted to our Rangeys BECAUSE they work on random basis, sometimes everything is fantastic, then for no apparent reason, its F*cked!

#1 is normal

#2 is still kinda normal but heartbreaking

She must of given it a thud, I reversed into the old garden wall levelling it only made a scratch

By warped, do you mean bent the ABS up a bit so it's scraping on the tailgate? A bit of PU Seam sealant between the steel bumper and the ABS will stick that down...

Hi what a crap day, I think we all are well schooled in mental coping when it comes to EAS and driving a roller skate home ( my children are permanently scarred by it) but to be rear ended by a fellow RR driver is s**t. It’s not beyond belief that neither the parking sensors or camera if fitted were working but I’m sure she had eyes.
Hope you get everything sorted quickly.
Tricky.

It's the correct order of things, coz the L322 is biggerer.

Don't you mean a buggerer? It wasn't you in my dress was it? Get it cleaned and return please!

But it already had the brown speed stripe on it when you stuffed it into my handbag.

So the truth is out, it was you who rear ended our 'Enery.

Don't rule out another problem, before I changed the height sensors for example I was lucky to get 6mths out of a seal kit.... 3 kits ago....
