eas on my p38 went tits up,now sat on it's bump stops.took the pipes out of the eas pump and there is pressure in numbers 1, 2, 4, pipes but number 3, is no pressure.sounds like it's the air bag or leaking pipe.your thoughts on this please.

prolly something wrong with the little unit inside the compressor, if the other 3 are going, and it's only number 3 thats wrong. Don't know the little workings inside the box, but that's my guess

you could rig something up to pump it manually!

just to test it see whats going on.

hi gav,i will connect up my compressor to see if it inflates the air bag,if it stays inflated it's the pump guts.if not it's the air bag.do you know which bag is number three air line.

Swap it out with one of the others that's working, that way you can identify whether it's the pipework/spring or the control valve in the box. P38A SuspensionHave - LandyWiki a look at the air circuit on here and see if it helps

if you inflate the bag, only do it a little bit, dont want the car to know its moved or you'll end up with trouble!!!

it might be worth refurbing the block !
