United Kingdom 2007 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Tonga Green
Front air suspension

The beast appears to have a leak from the N/S/F suspension. After being left overnight, this corner is on the bump stop.

Can I replace just this one or should they be done in pairs. I realise that if one has gone, the other may not be far behind but I would prefer to spread the cost out a bit..

Need to do in pairs. They are springs. I wouldn’t want to mix old and new on one axle, but that’s maybe just me.

When one of the front air bags on my 2004 car tore on the dealer workshop lift they just replaced that one and the other side was fine for the rest of the time I had the car, a couple of years from memory. That led me to conclude that the requirement to replace both metal springs on the same axle did not apply to air springs. It certainly would do no harm though to check the bag on the other side for perishing or other deterioration in case it is cheaper to do both at once and the other one is on the way out anyway. Only Range Rovers since 1988
