Do you think the refurb guys actually replace the NRV,s and not just "clean "them up.

If they are any worse than mine were they would have to be replaced. You can get refurbed blocks so i would think a lot of the stuff is available somewhere it's just a matter of finding where.

Update 29/03/11
Hi Guys,
Thought I would keep you posted on this saga. I phoned garage today for update. They had car a month now. more diagnostic work today and the final diagnosis was.................... WE DONT KNOW WHAT'S WRONG. Car being collected tomorrow and taken to an agent who know their stuff, It's been me telling them what to do after excellent advice from Wammers, & Datatek, Thank you both. They sounded so dumb when I asked them if they had tested the violet tank feed for leeks or the pressure switch. At least the garage have had the decency to waiver all charges. Please be advised folks if you live in East Kent stay well clear of these cowboys. They call themselfs a Land Rover Specialist, well they leave much to be desired, The service sales rep treated me like ****e, and was only interested in giving me a bill for work they failed to do, give them a wide birth they, if you veiw the first post on here you will see the Company name
Once again guys thank you all for your kind assistance I will keep you posted on what the problem really is.

The EAS is mostly so simple that if they can't get their heads around that, heaven help them with an electrical fault.

I have been trying to tell them this Datatek, All the advice yourself and Wammers have given me I have passed on but they just don't seem to have the competence to carry out this sort of work, I just can't believe this has all started since they fitted new front radius arm bushes and a front N/S air bag. suspension was perfect before this. It just goes to show you that these so called Land Rover specialists that are about are not always what you expect.

There's a clue, front radius arms and bushes. Problem probably started with them knackering one or both of the front height sensors. I know they say they have replaced them, but they have maybe gone on to cause more problems when they started interfering with other bits of the system.

As far as i recall changing of radius arm bushes was not mentioned in earlier posts. I agree Keith they have screwed something up and then screwed others things up in a sort of death spiral trying to sort it. Pretty incompetent really.

Final update Re: my EAS SAGA! and good news.
Well as you are all aware I collected my car from Carman Country Vehicles in Ulcombe Kent.
Therase were the incompertent idiots that messed my EAS system up in the first place.
Have since taken RR to another Dealer and the problem diagnosed straight away.
Teh problem was the vehicle was not calibrated correct and the height sensors on all 4 were fighting with each other.
All been done now so thank you all for your kind help on this one & especialy to Wammers & Datetek.
Just goes to show you bware of traders who call them selfs Land Rover Specialists as this bunch of clowns totaly knackered my air suspension.
The previous service work they carried out is also being examined and I and if not done to spec as they stated I will be taking the matter alot further, rogues like this need to be closed down. So please everbody beware and if you live in east kent avoid this garage like the plague.

Glad you got it sorted in the end; might be an idea to help others if you detail the garage that did get it right!

Get the heights corrected and see what you get.

That was what i advised in the fifth post in this saga. Maybe i should have said. Get the heights corrected (by someone who knows what they are doing) and see what you get.
