Suspension compressor service
Mine had a new compressor fitted amongst other parts to sort the suspension before we picked it up, that was two years ago and the suspension works as it should, wanting to keep it that way is there any service work I should be doing? When should the dryer crystals be changed?Steve

The compressor does come under the LR maintenance schedule though I can't recall exactly the interval. In any case it's better to do it every two or three years, especially in these high humidity climes. Clean the drier, exh valve, etc and blow out any dust / crud where visible. If the new filters are poor quality you might be better with the old cotton ones depending on condition.
Renew the silica beads and if it's a Hitachi compressor check the drier cap for cracks.
There's lots written on here regarding same, easy stuff really. yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ
