Reservoir static is usually the pump -- you can get a repair kit to replace the piston 'O' ring Current: 2011 FFRR Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

I did the one on my 04 plate, took about 30 mins to whip out the pump, change and put back -- that might be a bit optimistic though, there were two of us, and we were in a hurry! Current: 2011 FFRR Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

You don't need the pump, just a repair kit -- my supplier was a chap called Bagpipe Andy -- found him on ebay -- not the cheapest, but very good kit, full instructions etc Current: 2011 FFRR Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

Any tips on finding it? As my suspension is staying up and not leaning anywhere?? |

Try the reservoir tank itself, or the pipes leading to or from it Current: 2011 FFRR Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

Is the reservoir tank part of the compressor which I removed? Or somewhere else lol |

The reservoir is under the driver (RHD) and rear passenger seat (outside the car!!), runs in the channel between the sill and the floor .
