Sagging OSR still issues.

I still have issues with the OSR sagging on my Disco 3.

So far, I have had a new airbag fitted with new boot after being told it was split. I have replaced the rear valve block and just replaced the voss connector. Is there anything I should consider besides the hose? I have tried checking for leaks around the shock and connector and no leaks. I have tried soapy water and dabbed on water.

Is there any other hose that would cause the O/S/R to dip.

others will know considerably more than me

if there's no leaks anywhere , has it had a diagnostic put on, to check all the levels and if it may need adjusting

could the height adjuster be faulty , not allowing it to come up to the same height at the others

sorry i can't be any more help, just generally thinking

asssume you've already tested for leaks around the compressor , but i would have thought if there was an air leak they would all go down

only thing i can personally think of is the height adjuster either faulty or out of adjustment

may be totally wrong and someone who knows these systems alot better may be able to verify if that can happen ref height adjuster or needs resetting ??

good luck anyway

I pulled fuse F3 and the OSR continued to sink and the others remained at the same height. I assume that this would point to the air bag/hose/valve block.

Hi Simon,

Had exactly this a while back and it was only cured after the compressor died and I had to fit a new one. Can't explain it but something must have been leaking pressure within the old one. They are a bit pricey but everything works much better now...

Thanks mate,

I did end up replacing the compressor but still have the issue.
