But I've got a question for andy, when doing a tight turn either in reverse or forward i.e.: as in getting out of parking spaces the front end seems to go hard and bumpy, ... Anyway, I've noticed the front bags when turning rise to such a height they look like they nearly pop off there mounts, at this point the front wheels feel like they are bouncing or skidding as you turn, any idea

The only thing I've heard of like this was actually a seized centre diff - the torsional forces in the suspension cause it to lift.  Might be worth checking out since it can be tested pretty easily.

Range Rover Blues:
If anyone needs it I've got Rovacom Lite for EAS on the classic, to fix mine which sounds noisy too.  Not that I've anything to compare it with.

Anyway, I usually ask for a small 'donation' towards the high cost of the equipment.

If you want to tinker with your ride height settings, this can be done too :wink:

I'm with Andy on this one, I think it's your centre diff which is the problem.

andycwb:
I also have a Rovacom Lite with all of the P38A software and Classic EAS that's available to local mud-club members who can make it to my house, again in return for a small donation.

Range Rover Blues:
I'd agree, the bouncing and skidding isn't dues to steering geometry, it just makes the ytres scrub slightly.  I'd expect the car to sink though when driving forewrds and turning a tight lock.

Try putting the car in to access mode then keep your left foot feathering the brake as you manouvre the car, this keeps the system inhibited.  Better still leave a door open.  See if the ride height changes then, if so the probelm is NOT in the EAS.
