--- Quote from: "Range Rover Blues" ---Have you taken the time to read the manual, there are several conditions that cause the EAS to go into safe mode, including a compressor overheat.  For it to deflate completely I'd suspect more than one fault.  It takes about 5 minutes to work out what's troubling the ECU if you have access to Rovacom.

Don't listen to those people who tell you to go coil sprung, that's the chicken's way out.  Also as you'll have to declare it as a modification on your insurance.

My LSE has EAS and it's the most stable car I've ever had for towing, you just have to make sure the trailer is loaded correctly because if it starts to snake you never feel a thing.

Anyway, don't just chuck money at it without knowing what's wrong, if you lived closer I'd have a look for you.

Yay,what he said

ScrumpyJack:
Cheers TD90, sorted it with Phil,

Thanks wavey, that'll give me some reading for a while, looks interesting,

RRB you could always post me the rovacom for Christmas  :lol:  :lol:
But I do agree with you and want to keep the air,

ScrumpyJack:
Right,
I,ve managed to bypass the ECU and can get the air bags to rise, turns out I have a leak in the right front bag, :cry:

But the leak only happens at normal ride height, if i pump it up a bit more it stops,
does anybody know of a way to stop a leak like that or is just a case of a new bag,

and is it because of the leak that the ECU has dumped the air,

skip:
I know nothing about the range rovers air suspension, but that said would it not be possible to ditch all the electronics and just isolate the front and rear airbags so you could have a valve block and compressor operated from rocker switches in the cabin.

 I know that there is a safety aspect to this but you would still be able to let all the air out if you had a leak on one bag, no different to having a puncture i would have thought.

 at least it would be possible to find the cause of the problem without expensive diagnositic equipment,
