hiya

Have u noticed if it drops overnight , also the compressor might be getting tired so takes a while to pump the system up

mines runs for around 30 x seconds on start up

yes it does drop overnight

Hi

in that case u have a leak, therefore the compressor will burn itself out trying to keep up

normal areas are the end cap of the compressor or the air tank, try using some soapy water to try and find the leaks

the air tank has a seam on top of the tank , so have to take it out or can test it in situ with some gauges etc

also wish to add , please make sure ur oil pump cover has been replaced when the belts were done

Place ur disco into off road height , pull fuse F26 that’s in the engine bay fuse box, leave over night and see if any corners have dropped, helps by narrowing it down abit

Plse let us know how u get on and plenty here to help
