Disco ES 2001 2.5 TD5 - SLS Problems
I'm new to the Landy Zone, and certainly new to the workings of SLS on my TD5 ES. So I hope someone can help, please. The problems with the SLS is slowly sending me nuts.
I've looked at previous postings on SLS problems but none seem to have a similar problem to mine, so here goes.
Had the vehicle 3 years with no problems - fantastic machine. Last year had the air springs changed because NS would drop over 2/3 days, since then the vehicle was fine. From about xmas the SLS has had various minor problems, example: Compressor started to vent off - well it sounded like it was the copressor! Checked air springs, checked all piping, checked compressor for leaks, but found none - venting stopped of its own accord. Now SLS has dropped about 1.5 to 2 inches (vehicle nose up) but not right down to bump stops, and now stays at this level. If I load my trailer onto the vehicle, the SLS does not move but the Compressor (I'm assuming its the compressor or is it some motorised valve ??) hums, and then stops. If I remove the trailier or any load from the vehicle the same humming starts, and then stops yet the level never changes.
Anyone got an answer?
Many thanks in desperation
