Thread: D4 MY11 Air Compressor Failed

If there's no pressure with the dryer refitted empty then the compressor isn't pumping, in which case the valve for which there's a kit could be dismantled and inspected to see if its worthwhile getting the valve repair kit.

Thanks for that Graeme , will give it a go. Looking at Trif's pictures of new and old compressor looks like the new one doesn't sit as low. I suppose that's good news. Now how to get mine to fail while under warranty!!

The new compressor model is noisier but more robust by the look of it.

Always get great service from the team at Berwick LR. Just thought that was what to expect from all LR service departments.
not the same but recently had a warning message of “suspension Failue”. Appended after I jacked the rear of the car to change right side tire - low pressure warning. No problem found with the tyre so put it back on. Low pressure warning continued and the Suspension Failure appeared. Car down on the stops. No adjustment available. Left the car for a couple of days and jacked it up again. Dash adjustment now available and message ‘gone’. Pressure warning changed to ‘Check all pressures”. On checking all pressures OK. Pressure warning disappeared. Electronics issue? Hoping it’s not a sign of more to come.
