TD5 air suspension fault

[Landyman]

I know its probably been talked about loads on here but can some one send me some links to info on faulty suspension as mines not working properly and its all new to me.
Now I know why I prefer my Defender. :-k

Cheers

You don't say what is wrong with your Disco, but if you are looking to replace the air bags, here is a great link

I don't really know whats up with it. it just sits down at the back and won't go up so I was after some ideas. I did find that site last night its very good.
I have now put it in RJ Land Rovers at Sawtry to diagnose the fault and I'll take it from there.

If it won't go up at all, on either side, it sounds like your compressor has packed up - Is your Disco a 7 seater?. If it isn't, consider a coil spring replacement for about £80, better than the £100's to replace the compressor. If it is 7 seats - LR didn't get the disco approved with coils springs for the 7 seater, so best to stick with Air.

I had a similiar decision to make - Glad I stuck with Air, despite the hassle and expense - Remember to check the shocks as well. Mine were shot when I did my Air springs.

They phoned today and the compressors had it. I have opted to put springs on it rather than get a new pump.
Mine is the 7 seat version but I read your post too late its being done now. I don't think I'll ever need the seven seats anyway.
I'm that unimpressed with it I have decided I'm going to sell it when its done and keep my 300 TDi Defender.
