Thread: Disco2 HSE rear on bumpstops overnight!

BTW they are a wholesaler however will sell to AULRO members

I believe if one (leaking) goes down the other does likewise---something to do with the ride height sensor or self levelling system but I'm no expert.
Going down on refuelling stop, depending on length of stop may mean big leak .If they inflate & stay up while on the move it would suggest the compressor is probably still o.k. New bags are cheaper than a new compressor. Hopefully someone more expert can help.

Get that spray bottle with the soapy water ready. If the leak is as bad as that it won't take long to find.
Also, I'd be chasing up the nice person who sold the vehicle in that condition.
To answer your question - likely to be the air springs, no doubt.

x2!!!

I like Nankas, went Rovacraft, OEM bags & can recommend them. DONT go Arnotts in the US, went through about 3-4 sets of bags, all leaked within months or exploded off the steel rim holding the rubber on.

I wouldn't bother with second hand bags but I would x 2 what BigD says - get them checked and if bags changed asap since you will cook the compressor otherwise...

I wouldn't usually either but these are the OEM bags, not aftermarket items and they are only two years old and selling for bugger all, that makes them a consideration. I brought a new set of Dunlop bags a few months ago and had them fitted, one blew out as soon as it was installed.
The Bagman replaced it without question and very promptly but I must admit I don't feel that confident in the Dunlop items given what happened and how they compare in looks next to the OEM bags. I will say at least there is a warrenty on new items which is not the case with second hand ones but if they sell in the end for around $200 they could be a bargain and worth the punt.
