    If the doors & tailgate are all closed, and the car is low, then the compressor is feeding the tank and any airbags that need to rise. To fill the tank only a door or tailgate needs to be open. Your compressor failure two weeks ago could either...

    OK, it's LVF100400 (seems to be specifically for Bosch). I'll order it now. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks!

    +1. New Dexron 3 in the steering reservoir. You can undo the 2 8 mm studs and turn it upside down. Refill, drive for a week or so and then do again.

    They go on either way, the idea is that the sliding joint on the prop is put at the transfer box to reduce contamination from the road. πŸ‘

    Understood, I think my original pump was around 8 minutes to fill the tank from empty with a door open for no interruption ? (correct me if I'm wrong) πŸ€”.. Hopefully you've suffered just a tired pumpπŸ‘Œ

    Nothing is dancing or was dancing... it acts exactly the way it did before the compressor failure. In my eyes, EAS behaves perfectly. No dancing, no sagging, no weird states after power off. Also, achieves any ride height immediately within...

    Thanks for that Brian, that's very useful. This actuator is quite heavy, it needs some leverage to get it to operate the wastegate. Given that the psi requirements aren't great, it probably isn't working correctly in use. Do you know how it would...

    If the waste gate is stuck partially open it will certainly affect power. I doubt you need to replace the turbo, just find out if it's the actuator or the waste gate that is sticking. If it's the waste gate it can be freed off, if it's the...

    You should be able to unbolt the actuator vacuum body of the turbo with it still attached the the waste gate arm then you will be able to see which bit is the restriction unfortunately its probably a turbo off job but then its easier to work on .

    The waste gate or "bypass" as it's called in RAVE is pneumatically operated by turbo output pressure, in one place RAVE states it's vacuum operated, in another it implies pressure operated. Ether way, the vacuum unit is bolted to the turbo with...

    You could have the height sensor out of whack. Does it move up and at the front or rear. Like it's dancing?

    I have to keep mine at motorway height for towing or the little trailer runs on 2 of it's 4 wheels. Likewise at standard height, the caravan is nose up, not good for stability.

    Just checked, haven't got it anymore, I remember it caused issues with storage or memory or something on my phone as that's all I have. I'm pretty sure I downloaded it off one of the p38 Facebook groups so have a look under their files.
