HI all on friday and saturday i got the amber suspension light come on with error message suspension fault.Went and had the dtc's read and it said something about the air supply pipe,it didnt say anything about any of the corners of the car faults where cleared the suspension raised and lowered normally later on last night the same thing amber light etc.Went out this morning and the front near side leg looked lower so i started the car and raised the suspension a message came suspension vehicle raising slowly any help appreciated thanks pete could this be a relay or the pump? "Remember its easier to say sorry than it is to get permission " especially off the Mrs !!

Can anyone tell me which relay is the suspension relay I assume its in the main fuse box under the bonet im going to try this first but i think the pump is the front nearside seems to be dropping with 15 mins of parking now getting all sorts of errors like suspension will lower or raise when system cooled also it seems to think somthing is under the car and the error is something like locked completely off quickly realising you need long arms and short pockets stuffed with money but i suppose i cant moan as this is the first major thing going wrong apart from fbh locking out and ive had it 4 months some people only have them days and it all goes pete tong  "Remember its easier to say sorry than it is to get permission " especially off the Mrs !!

Been back for another diagnostic and its the worst the pump has gone heres to another £400 bill  "Remember its easier to say sorry than it is to get permission " especially off the Mrs !!

I know the feeling mate. Going through it as well.
I stripped and serviced mine the weekend but dint make no differance.
I'm worried ill fit a new compressor and still get a light come on.

If its any consolation mine has gone too
At current exchange rate your bill would be $1000 for me . . . but guess what. The joys of living at the bottom of the world I have been quoted $2000.00 to get fixed

Tried to get the part from UK but they dont understand Zero rated export and by the time VAT and then our GST I'm just going to have to lump it. Havin PHUN yet?? I am!!

Phun, speak to Nick Lee @Yeovil Landrover, he's shipped these things all over the place.

A quick question i have bought a new compressor which is due to be fitted tomorrow however i was playing around last night and the suspension raised as normal when i turned the car off i could hear a hissing coming from under the front of the car?? Ive noticed the front nearside seems to drop quite quickly is there some sort of valve here or could it be a split pipe as it didnt sound like it was coming fromt the suspension leg so i dont think its the airbag any ideas thanks pete "Remember its easier to say sorry than it is to get permission " especially off the Mrs !!

Heres the update garage found the leak i pointed out on the pipe under the front cross member where the pipe turns and goes under the radiator.He fixed the leak and all is fine so i spent £350 on a compressor i didnt need
So i ve decided to get him to fit it anyway he told me not to as my existing pump is perfect and he would buy the new one off me but as i say ive decided to get it fitted.So i have a good second hand pump for sale at least i can try to get some money back Any idea what the pump is worth cheers pete "Remember its easier to say sorry than it is to get permission " especially off the Mrs !!

Goes to show diagnostics aren't 100% of the diagnosis, but merely a tool to aid diagnosis. 

"Roads ? Where we're going there are no roads." Back to the future.

How very true sold the removed pump to a member on here as it was a newish pump it had been replaced but not with the upgraded one sold it for £115 posted he got a bargain just wish i could sell the almost new battery i have and a set of rear lights !! "Remember its easier to say sorry than it is to get permission " especially off the Mrs !!

I have had the same problem for the last week the amber light comes on and if I stop and turn engine off and start again it stays off for a while. Took it to Harwoods and they say I need a new pump/compresser £642 fully fitted inc vat. That hurts.
