Hi inflating manually as I still cant get it to engage itself. From empty with my compressor in the shed with about 40lbs on pressure in the tank I heard a bit of a pop then hissing noise. Any tips on what happened here. I had been at full height for a while today while I was trying to work out why it is only pumping up the back and not the front.

I have tried a search but I can't get a result for EAS as it is only 3 letters.

Can the airline pull out of the Bag?

Cheers

Matt

Hi Matt
you ought to read newrremedies (http://www.rangerovers.net/newrremedies.html#suspension) and get a good understanding. A pop and hiss sounds like an airline has come adrift. You ought also carefully check connections to the valve block if back and front do not rise simultaneously...there's a heap of references to the EAS on this forum as well as RANGEROVERS.NET HOME (http://www.rangerovers.net)
good luck with it

Airlines are detachable from the air spring, they have the same push fitting as the EAS block. I doubt very much one has popped out on its own but still possible. More likely that a weak spot in one of the airlines has burst. Is it evident which corner is sagging? If there is a major leak the spring will deflate pretty quickly

Bellow popped off. Reseated with a bit of rubber grease.
