Mine were leaking after standing in the garden a year. Valves are cheap, beads needed popping and cleaning was all they are okay now just bother of a job to do

I think its my cheep tires i put on a few years ago, they have cracks in between the tread, but there was no mention made at the mot, i was looking at changing them but with nearly a year and a half of work they have had to wait
the odd thing is it was a little down last night and flat as a pancake this morning.
 
I've found one on eBay, not too dear. Think I'll fit that then repair mine at leisure. If it's not physically broked

There's not a lot in there to break unless it has the plastic washers or one of the solenoids dies.

I'm almost at the point where I'm going to wreck this thing. I know they're cash guzzlers but right now everything seems to not want to work. Which is a PITA because I need it to be able to pass its MOT in February and I don't want to buy another one because it may also need just as much spent on it and I will have to learn what problems it has. It's now getting too cold to be working on it out on the drive. The joys of not having a place with a bigger than average garage attached to it, or even a yard for that matter.......................
I think what I might have to do is buy a ridiculously cheap runaround (only a couple of hundred) for the winter and hold off until late winter early spring to do all this work. I cannot afford to pay someone to do it all, so it is what it is.
Enjoy your day folks.
If you buy a cheap runaround, you know all the faults will miraculously disappear, right? Just to add to the annoyance
 
Are they testable/replaceable? I'm not getting any fault codes to suggest they are broke but who knows

Well, someone put it together so in theory yes. I've never known anyone need to though, other than that aussie guy with the plastic washers on early units. The ABS ECU is another matter ... and the connectors ... and the sensors.

Went for a drive and the EAS standard height light was flashing and the access light was lit,headed back for home and the suspension was a bit bumpy so before I rummaged through the stores I checked the compressor and it was cold, checked the fuses,all fine pulled the main connector apart and one spade was a bit discoloured so cleaned it up,reconnected it and all sorted. Wish all faults were that easily fixed.:D
