Hi,

What is this part?

When I start the car I can hear it kick in (to me it sounds like a mini pump). Is it something to do with the suspension?

It comes on for a few mins, switches off, then comes back on (I can hear it humming).

Just want to check that it should be doing this, and if not what should I do.

Help appreciated!

That's your suspension compressor 2008 MY Java Black TDV8 HSE

Leave the car in access mode when you park up, then see if it still makes the same noise In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures
Gone - A couple of RRS, A couple of Disco's. However thinking of another Sport.

I've got an orange suspension fault light, and the noise stops once the light pings on in the dash.

So, is this going to be straight forward....


Suspension is fine before the dashboard ding, goes up/down etc. Fault resets itself once car has been off, so the unit works, it just sounds like it's trying to do something (if that makes sense?) 2006 HSE for Sale - £7,499 (Manchester)

Sounds like it's leaking from a cracked cap, have a read through this lot,

Have you done the spray test first, just a bit of car shampoo and water in a bottle, better to be sure first. If you get no response from your pm, look on eBay for Range Rover compressor rebuild kits, they vary in price I went with a complete kit from X8R. But to be honest I think I could have gotten away with just the dryer filters and cap, as the piston seals an o rings were fine. But I changed them for good measure as I had the parts to hand.


This is the full complete kit

Just the end cap, (can be changed with out removing the unit, although a bit fiddly)

Could be an air valve block seal too.

The 3 air pipes that attach to the unit, only one will come off, the one under pressure, the rear two with are supply and return will never come off, maybe 1 in a 1000 will. When you cut the pipes, make sure you leave enough room to push the new connector on 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 )))
