Some more analysis. Two photos of the front wheels showing how the n/s has dropped overnight. This is the display with the front n/s down before starting the engine. This one is after the ignition is switched on and the suspension has levelled. It looks like in the first one that the...

The garage disconnected the battery over night and it still went down.

It’s a 2007. Yes I’m beginning to suspect it’s the sensor that at fault. They say they have checked the whole system for a leak (air bags, connectors, valve blocks, compressor, reservoir etc) and can’t find one hence the theory that the system is deliberately but erroneously letting air out. So...

Yes that is pretty much what it looks like.

Yes I do. I have checked it but it looks like all quarters are OK but I’ll keep checking it from time to time.

Hello, I’ve got a real conundrum with my air suspension front n/s. A couple of weeks ago I had a suspension error come up on the dash. Front n/s air bag had sprung a leak so had it replaced by my local Indy LR specialist. About three days later after the vehicle had stood overnight I noticed it...

Thanks, that’s useful to know.

A quick question on air suspension and icarsoft LR V3, will this allow me to deflate the complete air suspension system to replace an air suspension strut and then reflate the whole system and recalibrate it?

Thanks, I’ll go to the site and have a look.

It’s all about budget. I have about £15k to spend and reckon I would still need to spend on repairs and improvements after the initial spend. I understand that condition of chassis and bulkhead are really important.

I haven’t worked on vehicles for many years but not afraid to start doing so again and have most of the tools I would need. I’d get a lot of pleasure from maintaining my own vehicle again. Never welded before so this might have to be outsourced unless I go on a welding course!

They are the only dealer that regularly shows photos of the chassis condition of their vehicles in the ads, which is an honest approach, which does not gel with some of the reviews I’m seeing.

I have not yet looked on here, but I will do. A private sale is probably the way forward.

Hello, I‘m on the lookout for a Defender 300TDI or TD5 but after reading some terrible reviews of T&T Motors in Wakefield and Walton Motors in Cranleigh who between them seem to corner the market on Autotrader, I‘m not sure where to look next. Any ideas gratefully received.

Welcome and nice choice of motor. I have a 2007 model 3.6 TDV8.
