To piggyback, I've got 265/60/18 tyres on my 20mm lift D2a V8. Factory is 255/55/18. The speedo is out by quite a bit compared to GPS speed. Apart from expensive recalibrations, nothing I can do, right?

I have my vehicle set to Australian standards in the Nanocom. So I've been playing with the Nanocom for my Discovery 2a 2003 V8 and noticed this option in the Nanocom manual: https://www.nanocom-diagnostics.com/uploads/downloads/Discovery II Valeo BCU ECU Guide.pdf I tried it and here's what...

Anyone have a photo of where I’m supposed to be measuring from?

Thanks mate! Jack up at the front right? Under right side of axle? Should I do this with the fluid out and filter open? Or when refilled?

Yep both the same Oh wow! Interesting What banjos do you mean to release? My ACE fluid is blacker than black, so I need to change that actually, maybe there’s a clog Also, got quite a harsh ride even though they’re new shocks and springs: not sure what it’s supposed to be like since the old...

The D2a springs are handed: drivers side one is noticeably longer 2003-2004 But it’s the passenger side that sits higher in my case anyway Yep, installed correctly and also the previous ones were out of the factory like that…

Hub center to wheel arch with factory coils and shocks: - Front driver: 484mm - Front passenger: 493mm After installing Dobinsons springs and standard Terrafirma shocks: - Front driver: 515mm - Front passenger: 526mm The driver’s side coil is longer… why does that side sit lower? D2a V8...

How do I go about assessing this? Leaking pipe: don't think so because the car doesn't lower when parked overnight (or longer). Compressor or height sensor issue: could be. Someone also said it could be ECU? But how to I eliminate/test? No errors come up in my OBD2

Thanks mate! I fitted these ones: https://www.superiorengineering.com.au/dobinson-coil-springs-20mm-lift-rear-no-load-land-rover-discovery-1-2-10165

Update: I fitted the new (20mm lift coils) and new standard height Terrafirma shocks in the front and back (as well as new airbags in the back). Two issues: 1. The front is now higher than the back, visibly. 2. It rides really stiff on all bumpy roads and small potholes or undulations. TF...

So, I've got an update I changed the bags! (And also the shocks and front coils.) Now I don't get those jolts anymore (problem 2 from my OP), but I still get problem 1: - At traffic lights the rear gets lowered as I'm standing there with the brake depressed. Then while driving it has to...

Maybe you didn’t notice, but it’s the passenger side that is (and was) higher

I recently changed my front coils from factory to Dobinsons C51-032 and put the longer one in the driver's side, but now the passenger side sits higher, for some reason: Front driver: 515mm Front passenger: 526mm Rear driver: 482mm (new air springs) Rear passenger: 482mm (new air springs) Is...

Nice! Was it really messy removing the tank? I have a syringe with which I can empty it, but not sure how to prevent massive leaks from the hoses that are connected to it when disconnecting?

That’s so helpful! Thank you I need to find this roughly 35mm bigger oring for the hex key seal Managed to get the other one sorted Also didn’t have a 10mm hex key lying around so having to delay 🤣

Can’t I just clean my one?

Haha Black stuff like that? Any caught in any filters/reservoirs that needed extra elbow grease? Maybe it was flushing the system that fixed it, not the new fluid?

Cheers! Good. Do you know if the reservoir comes apart? Like if it's possible to get in there better to scrub that black stuff somehow?

That's how it looks when I drained the fluid out from the power steering fluid reservoir. Bad?

That's a great step-by-step! Will follow if I end up going down this route! All new hoses you mean? I'd love to do this, because look at the state of mine, but not sure I want to replace all those hoses and go through all of the steps of bleeding, etc.
