    Suspension Fault

    My suspesion issue is causing about $1000 to fix. I need a new compressor (roughly $850 dealer price) and an exhaust valve (about $200 dealer price). You can read my thread entitled "RIP suspension." I'm getting the parts elsewhere and an indy Rover shop is charging me $250 for labor.

    R.I.P Suspension - new parts needed

    I did take the cover off to check it. It was ok. We did do the relay jump start (as well as hooking up a battery pack to the compressor) and the compressor showed some signs of life. I could hear it running but it wasn't very loud at all. It was sort of like a slow humming.

    R.I.P Suspension - new parts needed

    The tire place didn't screw it up. I had my car lifted again and the compressor was ok. It wasn't smashed or dented or anything. The Rover place I went to is not a dealer. LR Jag Sherman Oaks is small mom & pop shop that been around for over 25 years. They just happen to sell a few cars too...

    R.I.P Suspension - new parts needed

    At least his car's rear would go up. Mine is slammed down like a lowrider and wont go up. The place I went to hooked up the computer system that a LR dealer shop would use, and that's what they came up with.

    Yeah, I checked his stuff. He's got one for $600. Not bad.

    R.I.P Suspension - new parts needed

    Hey everyone, So my air suspension is dead. I took my car for a routine tire rotation, and after bringing it down from the lift, the suspension went crazy and won't rise to the normal level. Every time I turn on the car, I get the pretty orange symbol and Suspension Fault on the message...

    Will I need a new suspension air compressor eventually?

    Funny seeing this thread...I'm going to need a new air compressor on my 05 with 42K miles. Took it in for a tire rotation, and after bringing the car down from the lift, the suspension went crazy and I'm getting SUSPENSION FAULT messages. Took it in to a rover shop and after testing said I...

    Looking for Front Tow Hook Cover for 05 LR3

    Hey all, A couple of days ago, I had the misfortune of hitting a dog (or coyote) on the freeway (what the heck was it doing there?! It was literally standing there waiting to get it. By the time I saw it, I had already run it over :dontknow:) As a result, I ended up breaking the front tow...

    Brake squeaking after having them replaced...

    Hey all, About a month ago, I had the brakes pads changed on my '05. I have Ferodo pads for the front, and Textar for he back. Not only are the squeaks still there, but now I get a very loud whistling noise too. It usually happens when I'm riding the brakes and moving very slowly or when...

    Solution for low aux input level? (iPod)

    I have the Belkin power/amp cable and it has done wonders. I get great sound from it. It's almost at the same level as the radio/cd. I needed something like this to blast my trance music. Thanks for the tips in the other threads!!

    Tire Advice

    I highly recommend the Kumho Road Venture APT KL-51. I have these in 255/60/18 and it's like a 10000000% difference from the Good Years. I'm very happy with them so far - smooth ride and no noise.
