Thanks for the help everyone.
Il keep updated on how I get on and what advice I need next ha
Not done anything yet but picked up
4 new hurricane alloys
Replacement interior door pull handles
Fog light switches that will eventually go to be used for extra lights
Replacement rear seat as current one is broken and battered with no seat belts.
Service kit plus oil
Door card plastic clips
Think that's it for now...just looking forward to spending some time on her come the weekend
Can you guys recommend which refurb kit for the compressor to use
Thanks guys
I have identified which pipe does what. Now i just have to refit and reconnect them
Thanks for the heads up.
Thats something else to add to the list
Il start putting together an online list now.
Question regarding the eas compressor.
The lines on mine have been cut with manual inflation added. I want to rebuild the compressor and re sync the lines.
Do the lines have to go in certain ports as I noticed they are numbered
Number 8 would be an easy day at the back. Sadly God made me as a 3 and always a 3 haha
The poly bushes that are in. Is that colour really soft??
Whats best to replace them with
Yes more than likely Dave
Big Hairy fella that enjoys playing the teddy bear but sometimes when poked can get grizzly
Well that's what the wife says anyway. I don't think I have a temper unless im hungry haha
Lockdown and no rugby training has caused me easily to put about 7kgs on in new money.
Im sill working 6 days a week but my body is use to that
Not yet big guy. I popped to near Manchester today to pick up 4 more hurricane alloys so went the scenic route around all the reservoirs and A628 I think It was.
I still need to short the wire out to test them
Would the becm see the drivers door open with the key alone or does it have to be the keyfob.
I have a machine shop at my disposal to thin stuff out but an oil filter strap may be easier to get my paws in haha
Thats great help.
The suspension is butchered at the minute with manual inflation valves added to each pipe.
I will strip and refresh the compressor aswell as the filter and dryer. Then re connect and see what the original issue is.
I already have 4 new air bags ready to order come payday and refresh the shocks aswell.
Then I will see why it was butchered in the first place.
I'm a fan of air and enjoyed the basic form on my D2 and like the set up on my RRS also

Mine are totally standard with Delphi pads. Never had any trouble stopping it even with a very heavy, unbraked, trailer on the back. Main thing is to make sure the accumulator is good.
How do you change the accumulator on the ABS pump. Do you just unscrew and replace ?
Just an update for everyone that may be useful
I have rang three LR franchises this afternoon looking to obtain a copy of my EKA code and they no longer have them on their system, apparently due to LR removing the historic info from the network.
I did however get a very helpful response from LR itself using this email address lradvice@jaguarlandrover.com
Where they will accept a couple of photos of my V5 then hopefully let me know the EKA
Just a heads up if anyone was wanting to obtain the code if they no longer have it saved etc
Dan
Thanks again guys
I didnt know they where yellow to be honest (colour blind)
But its a blamonche at the minute with it being manually raised to off road height.
Can anyone give me a rough distance from wheel centre to wheel arch just so I can manually drop them.
Good tip aswell on the brake lines. Il give them a good check over when I get it back up in the air too

I got all my info off LR through messenger, had to give them a few details, otherwise was straight forward
Which messenger ?
I was even naughty and drove down a backroad and achieved 2nd gear. Marvellous
Job by job we will get there
Another polybush hiding.
Had a little pre MOT natter and front brake lines look OK. But rear will need doing.
Mostly inside needs to be finished and put together.
Once the keyfob is repaired that will help cut down on any error messages aswell as buying a new battery to keep the ecu's happy
Luckily with a bit of engineering and as if by magic. We repair as a temporary fix to quiet the V8 down and make it a bit more friendly for the time being
And a few spaces where a couple of felines are suppose to live
