You know what, I havent changed it but I did inpect it and it looks ok. I removed it and properly inspected it but forgot to order one when I ordered the sensors. I had already decided to send the missus to the local LR dealership to get one. Oh, and some bump stops cos they seem to have gone...

Yeah, Im getting that feeling too. I know an electrician, but I wouldnt trust him with my disco, hes a nightmare and would probably find a way to short the car out/fry the ECU etc. I do, however, have a multimeter of my own, Im just not that familiar with how to test for faults on a car. I...

Done. And no. Still not holding. Pressure is definitely in the bags, but I cant tell how much. Just the bags feels very tight, like before, buy maybe not enough, I dont know. Once the bags are inflated, the jack is the slowly lowered away, and the disco just sits on it until the jack is forced...

air lock where? coolant level at correct mark. Incidentally, how would coolant level affect heating, just out of interest?

Yeah, however, without waffling (one of my habits, in case you cant tell lol) I have cant remove the compressor housing without breaking the bloody thing! I have the Haynes manual, but heard that they 'might' be ok when you fit new ones. At least enough to hold the car up enough to limp to a...

Briefly, replaced airbags and sensors (Original parts, new). As far as compressor is concerned, I have not disconnected it, just inspected it, leak tested it and made sure air is coming out of it. The bags do inflate to a certain extent. Leak tested bags too. No air leaking, from what I can see...

Hi Guys, Im having a bit of an issue with the heater on my D2 TD5. I forgot thats why I first registered on this forum but my f*&^*%g air suspension problem made me forget it.:mad: The problem is I dont get any heat from my heaters unless Im doing over 50mph. How odd is that? I cant even...

Ok, now Im mad. I have received the new ride height sensors today and I couldnt wait to get them fitted so as soon as I got in from work I got my tools and fitted them. Easier than doing the airbags without a doubt. However, the bloody battery was flat so had to sort that problem after the new...

Damn, forgot to tell you another little thing I found. When I was under the car inspecting the compressor and the vavles, I noticed a very quiet noise. It sounds like air bubbling, or at least escaping, but couldnt locate a leak at all. Its something that you can only hear with your ear right...

Ok, an update. I have now removed both the ride height sensors and clearly they have seen better days. One has split around the thread which I couldnt see without removing and the other just looks like its been fitted to a car for about 100k miles! Well, it should. They definitely need...

Im not really the Non-Land Rover buying type, unless Im specifically told that its either the same, OE or at least as good a quality as the original. Are the spurious ones worth it for the sake of saving a tenner or should I just go for original LR?

Its an aftermarket Sony unit, so Im ok there. Had that problem before, learnt my lesson.:rolleyes: Out of interest, whats EKA?

Silent compressor? Yeah, me too, I wish! Hearing it is my first clue, I certainly wouldnt miss the noise! I also hear the pressure valve once stopped too. Well, I used to before this, now I cant get it working to try. Well, its going to be another bloody week now to get back on the road. I will...

Am I right in thinking that its a 1/4" BSP thread? If its the one Im thinking of, we replaced one on my mates car with a standard plumbing fitting a while back. I cant remember what it was exactly, and I havent got a 300 near enough to try to get back to you in time. I remember it was one of my...

lol, a free fix! first one Ive ever heard of. Although, I think Im just going to nip outside and disconnect the battery for a few mins.....

Swampey, first thing I did when I was getting a saggy rear was replace the bags. At 101k miles, they were original, as are the sensors (or so they appear). Upon inspection, the sensors 'appear' ok. Ive cleaned them up and there is not so much a crack in them. But I know that means little...

Hi Guys, Im having trouble with my air suspension on my D2 TD5 but I think Im going to need a proffesional to look at it (ie, someone with nanocom). Can anyone recommend a local garage near Raunds/Wellingborough area that might be a help. Ive only lived round here for 18 months and havent had...

Thats exactly whats puzzling me. Im assuming if the compressor is knackered, then it wouldnt pump air at all. But it is. Im also assuming its a valve that is either stuck open or a leak in the air pipe, but the compressor isnt running as long as it did for the few times it had to inflate the...

Well, its looking that way. With the car not even driveable, its a case of finding someone willing to come here to read codes etc. I dont want to have to replace the compressor only to find out its the ride height sensors, or the other way around to be honest. Its looking like thats the only...

Ok, so after much head scratching (ok, hair pulling) and lots of soapy water, there are no apparent leaks. I cannot free the compressor housing as that bolt is just turning in its position so I have not been able to spend too long trying to free it. I might need to think about this one. The...
