How often are you checking the tyre pressure? Is is a constant mid 30’s and if so why not up them a little to perhaps late 30’s. mine has cheaper tyres on and a slight increase in pressure makes a big difference. I also have a similar feeling on mine and although changed one air bag at the front I can still hear the compressor running and that ‘pppppissssh’ noise whilst driving along. I don’t have any reference point of other Discovery’s to compare with side by side at the moment so am not sure it’s typical.

Sloppy ride!

My disco 3 2005 model HSE felt like this, I had a proper 4 wheel alignment carried out by local LR dealer as a local tyre shop made it worse!!! It drives amazing now, make sure you get a print out of alignment tool to ensure all readings are in the green (OK) sections. I could not believe how much change it made to the cars handling. the Disco 3 is a complex suspension set up and needs to be spot on to work.
