Forget ChatGPT and any AI answers mate, you have an air leak, it's purely mechanical. Get the strut out, fill the bag from your compressor and it should inflate, if air comes out anywhere at all (probably where you expect the O ring has failed), that's where your problem is.

Last night I went to look at an early L322 near me as it is for sale cheap and I was curious. A 2 owner car with 102k on the clock, 2003 HSE and only the smallest rust scab in the OSR arch. Even has a full tank of diesel! Seller states that he had a trailer on the back and when he unhitched...

Hang on... What? How do I code it to the car? Not something I knew needed doing. I've got GapIID so I should be able to do it but hadn't heard of that, do you have any instructions mate? I would be VERY keen to avoid replacing it again as it is a massive PITA. The error is "lost...

Late last year we went through the grief of fitting a new EPB to my brother's 2010 RRS. It works just fine... BUT... It doesn't communicate with the car. It was an amazon special so I expect it was wrongly advertised and is actually for a later Discovery or something with eh faster CANBUS...

If you can hear the air coming out, you don't need a tool to deflate it. Pretty sure the valve block is in the right wheel arch (definitely is in the rear), you can undo the unions there and deflate it that way too.

I'm lucky enough to live in the flight path of the Spitfire from Headcorn Aerodrome, it passes over my house half a dozen times a day in the warmer months. If you pay the really big bucks for the passenger experience, they will do loops and barrel rolls with it which is quite often overhead...

Went to my local JLR today to collect the tow bar recall parts for the good lady's Discovery 4. Very pleased to see that A) they've finished the building work on the new showroom, but more importantly B) the parking spaces have actually been designed for their vehicles to comfortably fit in...

Oi! You leave the Sierra out of this, I had a few of those and I always loved them.

^^^^This! I want to do some due diligence before I make contact. I'm casually looking for a cheap one of these for a bit of non-serious off road fun and this might have been it but the absence of the VRM puts me off and all this "no idea what it's worth, make a sensible offer" rubbish is the...

Never owned one but I do know that when they were face-lifted, they fitted steering wheel buttons that are like a touch panel with haptic feedback. Bloody awful to use, the proper button on this are better in my opinion. I also know that the front knuckles split, it's fairly well documented...

I broke one puller on mine and bent a second. The Discovery ones have been a piece of cake but my L322 was a stubborn mule on both sides! I was ready the second time around though.

I use a company that only do MOTs, their workshop is spotless, has an automated testing lane so every single time the test is the same rather than having an ape swinging on a pry bar etc. The tester just says "Pass or Fail, makes no difference to me". It's the polar opposite to most places as...

Rear airbags replaced last night. First time I've ever changed them without one being split; didn't think about what a ball-ache it is to refit the rear arch liner after removing it to release the pressure from the valve block. The good news was that I also remembered to fit the new pad wear...

Are they lovely? (In Paul Daniels voice) "My lovely assistant, Miss Debbie McGeeeeee"

Loaded it with ramps and tools, drove to my friend's place and (believe it or not) fixed his Toyota! Ha! Land Rover rescues Toyota! It had to happen one day. Have that naysayers! I also ordered replacement air springs for the rear as I have a feeling that they're original units. If they...

You'll need a compressor to seat the bag on the seals when you put it back on, takes about 40-50psi I think. Probably good to have a lovely assistant around to hold the strut up while you pull the bag down at the base and inflate it a bit too. Doing them on your own isn't easy. I'm sure it...

It's three large O rings and spacers which I'd be curious as to why it would even fail there and you'll have to go to the effort of stripping it completely to get to them. I'm not confident enough to say one way or the other whether or not these are the main seal or a sort of secondary seal...

That's where the bag is supposed to seal to the strut itself. It has a set of O-Rings (3x for memory) and plastic spacers to create the seal. It looks as thought strut is fairly new by the condition of the paint there. I'd be inclined to just fit a new airbag, it's a pretty easy job on these...

This is good news I think. The car agrees with the situation by the look of it. The flashing red line is the one above the wheel (the arch height?), I'm not that familiar with the earlier screen so I'm just trying to get it clear in my mind. The rears are showing as being in line with the...

Interesting and timely this; my friend had an issue with his this weekend where the compressor was overheating but his car wouldn't lower. It won't be the same for yours but we can use some of the same troubleshooting steps. I'm not sure how your exhaust mod would stop it overheating, the...
