Right so after messing for a few hours manged to get it aired up
But its not level at all can't see any leaks or hear any however
I've noticed 2 main thing that I think shouldn't be like they are
According to the scanner ride heights are as follows approx cause didn't take a pic
21mm front r
-60mm f l
-49mm r r
-40mm r l
Pretty sure they all should be the same to get a nice level height even when all the bags were empty it was still a big difference in height between the sensors as vehicle raised so did the mm which tell mes they're working
2 thing I noticed is ride height mode according to the scanner it says invalid clicked button on dash to go off road then it registered as standard height if u get what I mean

You need to calibrate the suspension. The height sensors are a variable resistor so the car needs some reference points to level up. Once you've inputted the actual heights the ECU should take care of the rest.

Can't check at the moment cos my height chart is in the garage and it's dark outside lol. But from memory you need to be looking at 495 mm wheel centre to bottom of arch front and 485 mm wheel centre to arch rear , wheel size doesn't matter.

With my diag tool you enter the measured values and the car works out the rest so the chart is just for reference. Unless you fiddle the measured values to compensate of course.

Right so tried to recalibrate height and didn't matter what mm I put in it did nothing 
Yes all doors were shut and it was running
And i also turned off after and restarted still showing no faults on dash

May I add i could only calibrate for 20 inch wheels not 22s it would not let me put higher then 800mm or lower then 680mm

Did you put the measured values in from the wheel centers to the arch for each corner?
The rim size would only matter if your tool tells you to measure from the rim.

It does tell me from the rim and yes I put it in from each corner

Guessing it tells you to measure to the bottom of the rim in which case you would need to subtract 25mm ish.

Reservoir pressure is a little low but that should go back up again. Compressor may have shut down due to temperature but should restart when it's cooled down. I don't think those heights matter too much. Have you re measured each corner after calibration?

Can't even guess what those numbers mean!! It's not mm!

If you lift the boot floor it may cool down a little quicker.

My guess is they're the heights the car estimates for each corner given sensor voltages and once you input the true values it adds or subtracts that figure to give the correct height.

If your compressor is getting that hot trying to fill the tank & bags, it probably could do with a rebuild. Otherwise it will let you down & either fail or blow the fuse again.

It does take it a few cool downs to go from 0 bar to 13 bar
