i don't have the Timer Relay plugged in.
i have a standard four plug relay in there instead.
and i can check the tank pressure every morning until the pump arrives and top it off if needed.
i'm almost 100% certain i have no air leaks presently.
and the Inhibitor button is there to keep others from changing the ride height when i'm not in the Rover.
You'll soon see in the morning if you have a standard relay in there. Any leaking bag and it will be down on that corner. You'll have no diagnostics for EAS either.
The tank feed has been known to leak where exhaust leaks and melts the pipe above. Rarer is the air-dryer leaking or NRVs in the valve block.

Cheers all. I suspect the comments I'd seen elsewhere might have been bags that rarely got fully extended failed in some way, as said the shocks should limit travel anyway there.
It may be complicated by the side steps installed on mine, but we seemed to be struggling to find suitable points on the chassis that weren't blocked in some way or other.
The worry is the height sensors moving outside their usual range of travel causing the track to pick up debris and start causing spurious signals. If you regularly have it on full articulation off road then either they'll be no issue or you've seen it all before.

After having issues with 3 bags completed, I confidently went out this evening expecting to back inside in 2 hours, oh foolish man.
This car cannot have anything done on the suspension in years.
Took me 20 minutes to hammer the rear wheel off the NS, this did not bode well. On the n/s there were 4 pipes in front of the air pipe connection which made getting to the connection much more difficult. The top pin was stuck & then broke, & because of the 4 pipes it was not easy to just stick a chisel in & belt it. Then the bottom pin took some getting out, but eventually it was out.
But I now cannot get the new bag to protrude through the top for me to get the pin in, so at 10.15 pm I have called it a day. I will have to get the angle grinder to clean up the underside where the top of the bag locates as there is plenty of rust there, & hope that does the trick.
This may not be a difficult job in terms of know how, but it sure can be awkward when rust plays its hand.
Drill with wire brush might be better as it is tight in there.
You need all that rust gone and the surface back to how it was originally. If the bag goes in at too much of an angle the rubber can pull out of the cap. Always fit new pins. If the bottom cap is ally make sure the paint is good. Probably worth curing the rust and Hammerite.

Jeez, it's almost like being a dick to your users makes them not want to use your site...
Some rather closed thinking with a bit of name-calling rather than sharing of evidence.
Hello all. I'll piggy-back on Wazza's opening. There seem to be a lot of familiar names on here!
