Range rover l322 Air Suspension

I was driving around perfectly when I notice my rear right hand side air bag had no pressure and was basically on the bump stops, Its makes no attempt to lift, The other bags all move very slowly but as if they have no pressure. Should I changed the pump and hope this solves the problem or is at disconnect height sensor or pipe broken on the way to the read air bag. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I did try and I could not hear any air leak, and I lifted it up with a jack and it still made no sound, the air bag makes no attempt to move at all

And the vehicle are suspension only fails our goes inactive when you move, Otherwise it will keep on working, It says for example is at standard height when clearly it is not, And if you raise it to off road height it just move a bit but keeps on flashing meaning it is rising but never finishes the job

Getting the fault codes read would be the first thing to do rather than just changing stuff... Pete

Either bag got a hole or height sensor is broken. Worst case valve block / solenoids packed up.

As you aren't hearing any air escaping, sensor seems like the best place to start. .

I can hear the pump running if that makes any difference, and the vehicle does move on the other air bags just very slowly

You've not done your profile (please do it) so we don't know the age of your car. This could also point to a worn out compressor on an older vehicle? There are so many variables Shocked .

It was the sensor, It had broke in half, Is there anyways to stick them back together without purchasing a new one?

Not really, it's plastic into a metal rod.... but you can bodge it.... Whistle

If you take the rod off both ends you can make a replacement with a bent coat hanger... don't laugh I did it to mine as a temp fix, then bought some Johnsons rods to find that is all they are... they just made it longer...

You have to bend the ends into a loop and insure it's the same length as the original rod before it broke, I held mine in place with a big cable tie around the part it fit's to on the car so it can't fall off.... had it on two weeks and it was fine, even went off roading with it...

If it doesn't sit level when you finish then just bent it a bit till it does..... Pete

Could be the solution I need Smile My front left is always down by @ 50mm even after some serious calibration effort with the IIDTool and the All Comms. Perhaps a little bending might do the trick. Which way to get it to go higher Pete ? .
