L320 2008 TDV8 - Suspension not playing ball

Hi, so yesterday my suspension was fine. I was playing around with teh code reader and deflated the reservoir and bags.

Today my suspension is not working.
I don't get any code faults, buy the dash says suspension will raise when system cools.

The 4x4 display permanently says raising.
The front wheels don't raise, and the back wheels raise at different hights

Is this just a case of re-calibration? L320 Range Rover Sport 2008

When was the compressor last replaced? It sounds like it's struggling to cope with the demands of reinflating the system (a lot of work for it). Might need a new compressor. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Hi, not sure if it has ever been replaced.
Stuck my head underneath but cant hear any sound, so could well be tired.
Keeps saying raising slowly, and, will raise when cooled.

Would you recommend a new compressor or should I try a refurb using a kit? L320 Range Rover Sport 2008

Sorry for the double post.

So I managed to calibrate the ride hight.
The red (suspension) warning light has now gone.

The suspension raises from access to normal, ok.
Seems to struggle with raised hight.

Is it worth getting a refurb kit for the pump or a brand new pump.
Autodoc have authentic Hitachi pump for £400, or a refurb kit is £100.

I also have a lot of ATCM, RLM and BCM U-code communication errors but the car drives. L320 Range Rover Sport 2008
