Our 08 TDV8 is going to have its second compressor fitted tomorrow. First one (hitachi) was replaced under warranty and an AMK put in (with software changed) in 2014. This time the fault thrown up is the front crosslink valve fault and gallery not loosing pressure. This led us to the compressor exhaust not letting air out.

Gallery not losing pressure was my error.

So are we just bodging it by drilling the exhaust / silencer? Regards

Not really. It’s blocked. It’s a silencer. it’s blocked over time. You can take it off by unscrewing it and soak it in Petrol etc or use an air line and see if you can get the crud out, but it’s far easier to drill it and it won’t block again.

Another 2011 here , had problems lowering shortly after I got it , removed silencer and cleaned it , helped but not perfect , 3 mm hole in end and no issues in last 3 years , if the silencer gets blocked (moisture causes corrosion to build up) then air doesn't escape fast enough , ecu then sees it's not dropping quick enough and thinks the car is sat on an obsticle and then jacks it back up and starts throwing a wobbly , if in doubt remove silencer for a week and see what happens , if all ok drill a hole in the end (it's fairly thick) and refit silencer . |
