    Tonga green bumper

    yeah that's what I thought I just wanted to be sure... ahmm I'm not sure if I'll do it, I know it is a load of expense but I look at it this way: 90% of people spend their first job's money on a car after graduating (I'm on the last semester). That's the biggest expense a recent college...

    Tonga green bumper

    Hello guys! I was curious regarding the bumper. If I want to do a face-lift and fit my Tonga Green LR3 with the new headlamps and rear lights etc. should I buy an LR4 bumper and paint it or can one get it in this colour?

    OEM LR side protection tubes VTD500010

    ohhh okay yeah it looks gloss black in the picture hahaha I know lighting and angles can make colours look well different like #thedress hahahaha. I've been thinking of wrapping, or plastidipping in white the roof of my tonga green LR3 (think a defender-like look) and tbh your LR4 is inspiring...

    can a leak in the EAS compressor

    Thanks cmb6s! I spent the weekend checking her by myself, I couldn't find any leaking air pipes, there is indeed a leak in the dryer and the reserve valve. I wrapped some thread seal tape to the reserve valve and fixed that leak, then I jammed the dryer leak with epoxy and some baking soda and...

    OEM LR side protection tubes VTD500010

    oh my wooow Ryby that is one cool looking LR4! and I am a guy who thinks that anything other than stock looks chavvy but that combination is quite nice! isn't the bonnet supposed to be matte as well to reduce glare? anyhow the colour contrast is spot on, good taste!

    can a leak in the EAS compressor

    copy/paste from my post at disco3 co uk I went to pick her up today. Spent about two hours in the stealership. The head mechanic and the one that worked on my LR3 were both there, they explained me that the dryer is leaking, and as the module that controls the valves is connected to the...

    can a leak in the EAS compressor

    that's what I told the dealership's head mechanic and he said he would check that and the air pipes. 7 business days later they call and say it is the compressor that's got a leak! I am going to the dealership to have them show me the leak because I just cannot figure out how a leaky compressor...

    can a leak in the EAS compressor

    can a leak in the compressor cause the rear suspension to drop? My LR dealer called this morning and after a week of "inspecting" the vehicle which dropped only the rear they say it is a small leak in the compressor. I don't buy it because according to me that would cause the whole EAS to...

    A new twist on EAS problems....

    gosh am I sick of this stupid EAS!! I think you should go with an indy as well, just to get the 2nd opinion. I can't understand tho, if it doesnt leak, then how can the compressor run with the reserve being full, I mean where is it compressing the new air into??

    LR3 Air Suspension Problem! Help!

    No I haven't got one and the LR3 is still at the dealership I'll talk with them before the close today. Compressor kicks in after 20 minutes of sitting still but works for only a few seconds so I am guessing the pressure decreases, but I don't know if it is because it tops up the rear first.

    LR3 Air Suspension Problem! Help!

    yes I did it and both rear lowered with the right rear going down all the way. I was very specific and told this to the head mechanic, he said "it may be one of the hoses that connects the valve with the struts" next day I called and the service guy told me that the LR3 was ready that it was...

    LR3 Air Suspension Problem! Help!

    After 2 days at the dealership they charged nothing for calibrating the suspension, according to the head mechanic that was the problem, only that it wasn't I will have to take it to them yet again. Quite angry tbh bc they clearly told me that it wasn't lowering anymore... RUBBISH they did...

    LR3 Air Suspension Problem! Help!

    yeah I left her at the dealership this morning, spoke with the head mechanic and he told me that most probably it was an airline, and if the valve then they change the whole valve. They'll let me know. On a side note I cannot believe how ignorant the service people are, the guy who received the...

    LR3 Air Suspension Problem! Help!

    So I guess that day one swaps the EAS for a coil suspension, the compressor alone costs almost as much as the four coils! hahaha anyhow, if I have time today I will take my leaky LR3 to the dealer otherwise I'll wear my compressor quite fast

    LR3 Air Suspension Problem! Help!

    yes it is only the rear right, every morning it's lower than the other 3, I think I'm going to the dealership tomorrow. Gosh I hate those guys they are so overpriced :( the part is about £80 - 100 yet I am pretty sure the stealership will quote me around 3x that price :mad::mad:
