read recently over on landyzone a similar problem with resevoir pressure static when filling, guy done a good write up and pictured the repair. it seems it is the valve block in front of the drivers side air tank. one of the valves fks up and causes this fault, which most people diagnose as a faulty pump. cost him 400 for the new assembly.

No this one, sorry couldn't find link when I originally posted

I haven't fitted a new compressor yet but just though I'd mention this, I jacked the car up today to change all 4 wheels, I was worried after it dropped to the bump stops that it wouldn't raise again but after a drive to the petrol station the car has lifted back up to what I assume is normal road height although I'm sure it's slightly higher on the drivers side, how has this happened if the compressor is t working? Is it just the air in the system that's done it?

seems like it , maybe thats why its lower on one side because there's not enough air to level it.... ... - .- -.

Bit of advice please, iv ordered a new compressor for my Indy to fit, it was supposed to arrive yesterday but looks like it will be some time today, my Indy said they should be able to squeeze it in sometime today but if it arrives to late I'm wondering if I fit it myself then disconnect the battery and touch the cables together will everything work? I'd leave it till tomorrow as the supension was just sitting at normal road height but lastnight I had the engine running and the door open for about 20 minutes whilst talking to someone and when I drove off the passenger side has dropped and its siting a bit 'wonky' I'm off to Scotland tomorrow so would like to get it sorted before I go so do you think I should fit it myself if it arrives to late for the garage to fit?

Another thing, if I fit it myself do I need to change the relay aswell (read somewhere you should change it when fitting a new compressor) if so, where is it located? Cheers

I was advised to change the relay - think it was about £6

My mate (who works at a main franchise dealer) changed mine out for me when I picked up the car - took him about 5 mins, and most of that was getting the spare wheel in and out.

He didn't bother to disconnect the battery - but I think it worthwhile.

Disconnect Battery
Spare wheel out
Unplug
Take out 3 bolts
Replace
Put back the three bolts
Plug everything back in
Change the Relay (edit!)
Reconnect battery
Start up car
Move steering wheel from lock to lock

That was pretty much it - if I'd known it was that siple I'd never have bothered asking him to do it (although I was in a suit, and he was in his work gear ) l:OolΞΞΞΞΞΞloO:l

I should be ok swapping it over but just wondering about clearing fault codes, currently got 'air suspension inactive' on the dash so wondering if disconnecting the battery will clear it :s

The compressor iv bought doesn't come with the turtle but I was told I could reuse my old one, how do I separate the compressor from the turtle? Iv just been out and if you remove the four bolts the full thing lifts out but I assumed the 3 bolts on top loosened to separate but when I try loosening them they just spring back?

If the underlying fault is fixed by replacing the compressor, you should be fine (if you also do the steering lock thingy).

If there is something else wrong....depends! l:OolΞΞΞΞΞΞloO:l

Not sure what you mean?

When I changed mine, I was told that we wouldn't have to clear any codes - doing the steering lock thing would be sufficient.

But then we found there was another problem, and ended up having to change the steering angle sensor before it would work. This involved a fair amount of investigation (with an IIDTool), some help from the GAP guys, changing out the part at home (a lot simpler that it says on some forums), and then initialising the new sensor (which we had to do using testbook, as at the time the IIDTool didn't have this function - I think it does now) l:OolΞΞΞΞΞΞloO:l

With my luck I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't solve the issue, any ideas how to remove the compressor from the turtle? If I can't get it fitted by tomorrow dinner time and it doesn't solve the issue I will be putting the car up for sale as iv had 20 odd cars in the past and none of them have stopped me going on holiday lol

Does this help?

I can't see the pictures as at work...
