Hello All! Hope everyone is safe and well. I recently bought a Range Rover 4.2SC 2008 L322 which i know had issues. Little did i know there was soooo much electrics and that such a monster offroad can be so sensitive to voltage drop.

i have the a Insta page where i uploaded all the faults but there is something that i cannot find any information on which ill post here and any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Why are only 3lights flashing red on the wheels?

Kevin

Can you get a reading on a screen for the existing pressures?
It may have had the sensors removed on a tyre change.
That is, if it's the problem.
My P38 doesn't have half the gizmos like the L322's have and I'm kinda grateful. I hope you find the issue and can help others with their L322's :D;)
 
That says your suspension is faulty. I think red is saying it is below its lowest setting, at standard height the orange markers should be on the white line.
This was mine when the rear drivers side threw a hissy fit. Is your suspension up?

Hi Kevin,
Mine may be a 2005 SC but it’s essentially the same screen info. Yours should look like this at standard height, as it is your display suggests a total loss of standard height with three wheels out of range ie the red markers. If your wheels are actually at the correct standard height then you have sensor or calibration issues.
What happens if you try to raise the car?
Tricky.

Priceless info and appreciated!

i don't think its at the standard height as the wheels seem to close to the arch & the front mudguards scrap. Also i have noticed 1 wheel is (255/50/20) & the other 3 are (275/40/20) which im guessing the princess RR wont like it ha!

for £1200 it deserves a chance to live again as it has 193,999 miles on it, and was parked up for 12 months rotting away.

ive loaded of the height it seems to have settled on which in fairness the rear has gone up slightly

Sorry I got distracted this evening.
You need four tyres the same, wheels too I would think. At least there is a fighting chance of getting her to ride level.
Then there is the matter of interior condensation and damp. Invest in some microwaveable dehumidifier pillows, they work very quickly and for a car not used in twelve months essential. I am on my second RR SC and the pillows are a permanent addition. Every 2-4 weeks or when the dot turns pink, 6 minutes in the microwave and your RR is in a good place electrically.
Nice pics, the black always looks great clean, keep us updated.
Tricky :)
 
For driveability I would agree that 4 identical wheels would be best but IMO as long as the circumference is the same on all 4 wheels it shouldn't affect the suspension.
Gonna try that dehumidifier trick myself, I have a spare one from the wifes Corsa.

Definitely worth doing. I put one in the glovebox with the cover off the fuse box and one in the NSR compartment where all the dvd and sat nav kit is.

Guys feedback greatly appreciated!

ill order up 2 tyres and i found the other original alloy under the boot hopefully it holds Air as theres a wee gouge! So i fired up the Lynx Pro to see my 117 codes down to 69 and pretty consistent.

Main one i think is the Ride Level Control Module is or what it is?

microwave pillows on the next amazon order .

Grey looks pretty amazing to.

Your fault list looks very like the 40+ my last Range had when I got it, funnily once the moisture was removed (the first pillow I microwaved for that cat left puddles in the machine) the codes never came back again. I’m convinced a lot of the lost communication codes are created by moisture in the electronics.
My rule is if the Car windows Most up on initial start up there’s too much moisture in the cockpit.
Good luck with the tyres, perhaps you should lift the boot floor when starting the suspension lift to check the compressor stops shortly after the car reaches the standard ride height as you have a slow raise fault in the list.
Cheers Tricky.
