    Well, I've had the new air bags in a week and not a sign of a sag. They inflated as good as gold, too. Thanks to all the contributors and just to re-iterate what the more knowledgable on here have said: even when you're sure it's not the bags, it's probably the bags......:D

    I have a Hawkeye, but never really used it. Am I right in thinking that the brakes and suspension are a different ECU? The multi-plug in the passenger footwell? Does the Hawkeye do that? The last first one I replaced wouldn't go up and after a lot of web searching, resulting in finding so many...

    Yes, I guess that must be true; one side does go down before the other. Having said that, with my previous leaks, it was really obvious which side had the leak. I Think I have a really seriously big leak that only leaks at a certain suspension level - speed bumps, especially, and it goes down in...

    Well, I went back to first principles and sprayed with soapy water. Nothing. Then I jumped up and down on the back bumper and lo and behold! bubbles from one spring. So I'll buy a pair to replace both. Still not sure why both sides go down though?

    I followed the link for the isolation valves, it's only £20 for the set - it wasn't clear how it's used but I'm guessing to comes with instructions. If I remove the whole air system from the equation, I can pull the valve block and clean it and still be mobile if it goes pear-shaped.

    I think this is the thing? Best price is about £150 - lot to pay on spec........ I'm not sure if it's true that a leak an drop the suspension on both sides immediately. When I have had leaks, it was one side, overnight. ANR4869 | Valve Block - Ds2 Rear Air Suspensi

    As an addendum, I cancelled the order for the bags because on the one hand, it will stay up for week, but on the other, if I bounce on the back bumper, it goes down in seconds and further, if I go over speed bumps, it will also go down, even when the engine is running. It goes down too fast for...

    I'm trying to get my head round the fact that it can stay up for days, and yet go down within minutes, even with the engine running. What's the signal for the system to release the air from the bags? The height sensor is the easy answer, but is it sending the wrong signal to the ECU or is the...

    I was thinking the same thing, though I'd thought of replacing the ride height sensors while I was at it. Dunlop air springs are only £55 each and the sensors £22. If that doesn't do it, i could think again. I would go straight to coil springs, but it's a 7 seater and I've read of insurance...

    Go for coils springs or can it be sorted?

    Guilty as charged on changing one air bag at a time. What is an "air side" problem? The fact that it went down after a couple of minutes driving over speed bumps might suggest sticking ride height sensors? I'd bite the bullet and get a pair of ride height sensors and two new air bags if I...

    Disco 2 facelift, 2002, 7 seat. I've done a search of the forum, but didn't find an answer to my problem. I'm having trouble with my air springs. Both have been replaced, the last one about 2 years ago. They are not leaking - I can pump up the suspension and they stay up for days. The problem...

    Hello there

    I've had a Disco 2 since 2008, it has 111K on the clock. Bought it to tow a boat, but now that I no longer tow, I like the size and functionality. I'd like to keep it until it fails!
