replacing suspension compressor

has anyone attempted to replace the suspension compressor on an 07 RRS, if so how did you get on?? any tips also does anyone supply refurbished compressors or is it worth purchasing a refurb kit

I got a refurbed kit from ebay, all done in a day, no problem at all, however you will never get the air pipes off, so you will need to cut them, just make sure sure you buy a 8 and 10mm connector before you do the job 07,TDV8,Black, Black Heated leather all round, Rear Entertainment with Headpones & Remote, TV, DVD, Pure Dab Digital Radio, Sidesteps, Adaptive Headlights, sunroof, now working fuel burning heater Smile)))

That's great thanks for the feedback, I can see what like tee piece connectors and another electrical connection, possibly a pressure sensor, do these also come out with the compressor

from what I can remember, there are two electrical connectors that need to be unplugged, one small air pipe that will come out, there will be a bit of pressure in it, and at the other end two big air pipes, not under pressure, by all means try and get them out, but these are the ones too cut off, leaving a good few inches to connect the connectors too.
These two are the air intake and exhaust pipes 07,TDV8,Black, Black Heated leather all round, Rear Entertainment with Headpones & Remote, TV, DVD, Pure Dab Digital Radio, Sidesteps, Adaptive Headlights, sunroof, now working fuel burning heater Smile)))
