So my funky steering turn right stiff off center turn returned, i sat and thought have i had enough is it just time to sell then at 160k its probably not even worth the money or hassle selling,
Also wondering how long the gearbox/torque converter will last being the zf6, it has been serviced and had a fresh valve body and solonoids and isnt showing signs of hassle,
Did start browsing for another to run about in so i could just park mine up and drop both subframes and have them blasted and treat the underside before the one day i look and it isnt silver anymore,
Then i decided to up the budget a bit and found some nice 4.4tdv8s and started my cogs ticking of i wonder if id be happy with going back too diesel,
Then i gave up with any of my random ideas or thoughts and ordered a steering rack for it as its the only steering part not changed now and its mine and past steering glitch im actually quite fond of it and started making an order up for my 5.0 v8 swapped 3 series so i can stop myself of any idea of buying another RR for now
Pretty unusual for an armature to break up like that, are the bearings OK?New compressor, mine was hatachi new one found off a local one breaking 2011 with an amk,
Fitted and updated compressor type to amk with sdd,
It raised up, sat running for an hour compressor never kicked in again until i selected a different height,
Went home and took the old one apart,
One of the magnetic bits has come away and arced the old pump out, heres a pic View attachment 324164
Felt ok, the compressor sits in the oem bracket but couple of screws look like they had been touched before, it did cross my mind if it was a cheep one thrown in before I got it, mabye who knowsPretty unusual for an armature to break up like that, are the bearings OK?
Was the cause the magnet coming loose while running, or the armature breaking up and collecting the magnet though?Pretty unusual for an armature to break up like that, are the bearings OK?
Think I have one in shed. Will have a look later and get back to youI have an old P38 compressor with same magnet issue . . . . but in my case it happened when the motor casing rolled off the bench. If anyone has one with knackered armature but good magnets ??

I'm same as you, carry a working spare in boot and another runner in shedThat would work. The armature, brushes, piston, etc are all good on mine. As I already have spare pumps in the boot of both P38, another spare could wait in the garage for that fatal day !!
Getting it safely from Rotherham to Langley is another story. Otherwise I could post you the other bits & you can build a spare?
I carry feck all.I'm same as you, carry a working spare in boot and another runner in shed
You sir are a cad and a bounderI carry feck all.
