Where's the leak?
I think I'm up to something: so upon further inspection I discovered that the scum mechanic was so lazy that he did not put anything back on its place: the valve was not fixed to the frame but literally hanging from the air pipes. And the wires were floating as well instead of properly secured...- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
here they are, I am cleaning it, will look for some compressed air like the one used to clean keyboards. How it became so dirty in barely a month of use is well beyond me. I will clean everything but just to be clear, that black thing on the 2nd and third picture is the exhaust ? or where is it...- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
Thank you very much for all the info cmb6s! that's quite a load I think the sensor on the door is fine because if I try to change the height with the door open the screen says "close door to change height" so it knows the door is open. The only way of venting the gallery after the fault appears...- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
I will, as soon as I discover where it is!! (I would massively thank if somebody points me to it) Anyhow it is really intriguing to hear the pressure venting IF the door is open, I mean as soon as I close the door the pressure does not vent, the compressor stops and the EAS throws the fault...- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
Have you got any idea of where those are located? I'm absolutely clueless and don't quite get the diagram. I also suspect my indy has got rubbish software, will take it to the dealer whenever I have a chance and hope for the best. Edit: I cannot get into access height anymore- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
So it doesn't leak anymore yet it beeps another fault (this has become a bloody comedy right now) it says "pressure not decreasing when venting the gallery" my indy couldn't fix it. He threw the towel and said the compressor is fucked up. The only way of getting the compressor to start is by...- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
Don't get me wrong mate, I'm blaming LR for one thing and one thing only: the poor suspension design! I go off road about twice a week, much less now that I'm working but anyhow I don't go alone my mates have got jeeps, fjs and chevy silverados and they've had ZERO issues with the suspension...- BearishDriver

Air Compressor and any high ticket item before warranty runs out?
900 sounds reasonable, one can find them new for around 700 on ebay. Edit: from my experience the whole air suspension is absolute rubbish and quite unreliable if you actually go off-road often (by often I mean twice a week or so) so if I were you I would try to replace as many components as...- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
I was abroad on vacations... I received the new air strut this Monday and I left the lr3 at the indy today, should hear back from him tomorrow or Monday at the latest, I am bullish now and believe that was the main issue. Looking at the 4x4 screen after some driving the f left wheel would be...- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
No, the sensor was not replaced, the valve was replaced. I am not sure if the indy recalibrated it. Anyhow I'll check it myself over the weekend and if I cannot find the leak I'll order the replacement air strut, shall it leak again I'll make my indy pay for the airline which is the only other...- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
I will, I just rather spend those $500 fixing this issue... I will replace the air strut under warranty as clearly the main cause is a physical leak between the air valve and the strut, I mean we can discard the sensor and the 2 week old valve, so it is either a connection, the air line or the...- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
I think you are spot on Houm... I replaced the front valve block about 3 weeks ago, So I'd expect the indy to have done the calibration back then, nevertheless and given the mediocrity that rules the mechanics in this country, I cannot be sure. However today after lunch when turning on the...- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
Alright so I finally spotted a constant error, if I lower the suspension into access mode the top of the front left tyre flashes red on the screen, this does NOT happen at normal height or off road height. This is the same air strut that was replaced less than 6k miles ago, it also lowers...- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
yes, it's been a rather persistent issue... about 16 months now struggling with suspension problems, either an air strut or the compressor or a valve or what have you... I haven't had an issue since friday but the 3 still lowers its front axle overnight. Dealer literally did nothing, he...- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
my exhaust vavlve? I haven't checked it tbh. My front axle lowers noticeably within 2 hours with the front left strut going quite low in less than 3 hours. overnight the front lowers almost to the bumpstops. I'll call the stealership later today and hear what they have to say...- BearishDriver

Where's the leak?
No way the new air valve is bad AND the new compressor was bad and now the indy says it is one of the new air struts (less than 6k miles on them). Those would be literally all of the components of the front axle, impossible to buy so many lemons independently. I have not personally but my indy...- BearishDriver
