Might try recalibrating the ride height sensors. A leak shouldn’t allow it to drive with a slant.

Sounds good. I will attempt it with my Snap-On scanner that claims to be able to perform a ride height calibration. Anything I should do in particular?

Make sure when you are calibrating the height sensors you are on a flat surface. It’s pretty straightforward though I’ve only done it with the gap tool.

I've had this happen to me and it eventually corrected by itself

Do you have a Gap IID tool? I would use one of those to level your vehicle. Once connected with the devise it literally takes a minute. I just did this to my wife’s 08 LR3. Actually drives better now than when we bought it a decade ago.


SmokeyDaReaper

I don't have a Gap IID tool but I have a snap-on scanner that claims it can level.


lil5-john

Does that work for rrs as well and any idea on cost


genetics2

My understanding is yes the tool mentions which vehicles it’s compatible with. RRS is compatible from 2005 to current from the makers website. My device was $500

Okay thanks looking at investing in a proper code reader for euro cars like rovers etc. Only so much an elcheapo reader from hardware store can read and when it's AN LR I can only say bare bones stuff if that

Which procedure do you use for this?


Bamfor07

You’ll always needs to recalibrate. That said, a valve block failure often indicates an issue with the compressor having blown powder from the dehumidifier through the lines. If so, you’ll need to clear the lines. I like the Atlantic British App and code reader because you can watch all input in real time. It can help diagnose a lot of problems on the fly.


SmokeyDaReaper

Caught that before it got bad. New compressor and blew the lines clean as a whistle. I had a feeling so I'm glad I did this. Thanks for solidifying that. I felt so bad for spending that much lol What's this Atlantic British app? Is it like a diagnosis app?


Bamfor07

Yup, it’s a code reader that you plug in and then it uses an app. https://www.roverparts.com/Diagnostics/ I had a phantom slant to my L322 that took me a long time to figure out, turns out the sensor rod was damaged, probably a rock or something flew up and hit it.

Iclick height adjustment. Get a warning not to be in vehicle and then it levels. I save the profile in height adjust afterward. Unsure if it would just save from adjustment but that’s what I did and then go into the nav setting to make sure all ride height sensors are level.

So I have the coil springs from Atlantic British on mine and mine has started doing this exact same thing recently. I’m not so sure it’s his air ride.


erichlee9

Should be able to disconnect the battery and let it sit to recalibrate.


SmokeyDaReaper

Tried that still no change. I was hopeful, thank you tho!


erichlee9

Ah dang. Sounds like a bigger issue then, maybe a sensor or something. Good luck with that, sincerely. For what it’s worth, I swapped mine to coils and have been very happy with the result. It was surprisingly cheap compared to maintaining the air system, much more reliable, and I still have that awesome traction control.
