Past few mornings found front drivers side air bag fully down. Took eas relay out last night and still down today. Soapy water time and found bubbling at the collet where air line goes in. Have ordered some new O rings to try before changing bag which is only 41/2 yrs old and done about 14000 miles. Thinking back couple weeks ago had to change front tyres as one was damaged. Could hitting pothole or such like cause problems. Any thoughts much appreciated :)

It may not need new O rings, could be the pothole shock has just backed the pipe out a little and a firm push back in will fix it.
 
plugged in laptop to have a look at the CCF file, see what I can glean
connected.. error.. unable to download from car, all options are invalid, need to find an alternative source

well that doesnt sound too happy

Front airlines easy to get at as I recall. Worth just unplug and replug incase the line got slightly shifted? It is vertical after all.
 
If you are pulling the front out just beware of air pressure and once removed, I would also cut a tiny bit off the end and ensure outer edges as slightly chamfered (a small pencil sharpener works well). This ensures you have a new pt for it to locate. Frankly easier to add new lines to the front then you know the front 6mm lines are good for another zillion years. Good luck!
 
OK, so after 2 weeks in hospital, they finally decided that although I'm not fixed, I am not in any danger so they decided that I shouldn't be taking up a bed. I told them this a week ago but hey ho.
Still no idea what the problem is but thankfully it does seem to be slowly clearing up by itself.
During checking they found an enlarged node in my chest and took a biopsy yesterday so hoping to god its not cancer.
That all said, onto things more RR related.
Went to the unit today as I wanted to put it inside to dry it out for a few days as its soggy on the passenger side. Pretty sure sunroof drains are blocked so that's a job for when I'm fit. Some recommend strimmer cord, others suggest compressed air. Anyone got any insight?
Also, front end was on bump stops and battery was totally dead. (there are two new bags for the rear but not the front I think grrr)
Battery is pretty new by the looks of it so my guess is that one of the reasons for sale is parasitic drain.
That said, jump leads on it for 5 minutes off the pickup and it fired up clean as a whistle.
She's inside now fully opened up until she's dry then hopefully I'll be fit enough to tackle all the jobs.
