Hi all,
Just wondered if anyone has or can tell me how to get the part number for the suspension compressor on my sport, reason being I’m having normal ride height only popping up all the time now so I’m biting the bullet and taking it off this week and was gonna do a search to see if there is a service kit available rather than just fork straight out for a new unit. I’m sure it’s the compressor as I have no suspension drop even when stood 3 or 4 days.
Yes I know. :rolleyes: It’s a 2010 sport 3ltr diesel and is fitted with the AMK compressor.
Thanks in advance. Sheriff:)

Try 273177564720 on the Bay.
 
Tomcat, brilliant thanks for that don’t know how I missed that one coz everyone I found for the amk but when I read the details further down were all for the hitachi.
Anyway was going to start tomorrow with the hope that the reed valve just wants cleaning and the airdryer desiccant changing but :mad: just pulled on the drive from visit to flipping Tesco in our pug 207 runabout when bang front o/s coil spring snapped, so that’s now tomorrow’s job :(:mad::mad:
Will let you know what I find on rangey when ! I start it.
Cheers. Sheriff

It's the bloody potholes, did both fronts on my mates Puma a couple of weeks ago. It had only driven 50 miles since its MOT and they were unbroken then .:mad:
 
Please please do not moan about working on landys until you’ve had to work on flipping French Peugeot SH**E !!!!!
Changing a broken front coil spring on our 207 runabout, ha! straight forward I hear you say. Well
Track rod off ok, anti roll bar drop link off ok. Bottom suspension arm absolute barsteward, because of the stupid flipping angle the taper enters the hub won’t come out just jams, tried jacking hub up and using 3ft crow bar to lever it out no joy other than slipping off and removing brake flexible hose :mad: ended up having to unbolt the whole bottom susp arm, eventually got the full strut out, spring compressed but cannot budge the top nut, actually twisted the Allen key (not cheap sh1t either) that locks the spindle. It’s not even a decent depth nut tried shocking it with a hammer and chisel no joy and my air sockets aren’t deep enough to fit mind you I doubt whether the air wrench will crack it. So tel call to motor spares tomorrow to see if I can buy the top nut if so out comes the old faithful hammer and chisel if not I’m fooked looks like a new shock as well as a spring. French sh**e. Poor old rangeys compressor just got put back another ferkin day. Grrrr:mad::mad::mad:
 
Thanks Gary, bin talking to a mate who has a small garage business working on landys but won’t touch anything newer than the 2.7 sport he says most likely the air dryer probably end cap cracked due to the desiccant gumming up, I’ll let you know when I’ve sorted this fooking Peugeot sh**e that is :confused:

ur very welcome

ref the end cap i wonder if he’s talking about an hitachi compressor , as the dryer cap on them are renowned for getting a hairline crack in them, apologises don’t know 100% about the AMK

think i saw a AMK pdf manual somewhere, will see if i can find it for u

the suspension would drop though if u had a leak and notice u saying it doesn’t

u haven’t lived until you’ve replaced a turbo on a TDV6 , lol ,

i better get my coat before i get abuse ;):D

PS, indeed plse let us all know how u get on

is it really, don’t mean that sarcastically, you’ve got twin turbos on urs though hasn’t it, same as the diesels TDV6 D4s , is urs called a SDV6 , as in sequential turbos ??
 
I think so Gary as it has the sequential turbos.
Finally got the pug sorted after 10 rounds of fooks and a couple of grazed knuckles. Half days job crammed into flipping two :mad:
Having a rest day tomorrow then will start on the rangey at weekend :)
Stand by for sum more cussing :):rolleyes:
