Could be the relay - did they change it when they changed the compressor? They are known to get a little "tired" and cause compressor symptoms.

Other than that, there are 3 valve blocks for the EAS, a main one by the compressor and one for each axle of the vehicle. Obviously, along with the connections to the air springs themselves, that's a lot of connections. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Considering that the car is handling like a suet pudding and the suspension is playing up, I recommend you take it to someone who knows what they are doing! Rolling Eyes it's not just your safety at stake.... Whistle 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀
TDV8 Sport HSE...... Gone. Loved it but it didn't love me!!
Now rolling in MY10 Fullfat TDV8 Vogue. Slammed it to go round corners🙈
Cruising daily #56 mph in a Volvo V8. 😱
Lots of other toys in the cupboard...😜

Sounds like you have a leak and thats why the compressor is running, if they have changed it to the new type they would have to have changed the pipe work get this checked as this could be the cause of your leak.

Flack Thumbs Up
