Thread: Discovery 3 Suspension faults - needs help with troubleshooting

The ride height reading for the rear right sensor is a whole lot different to the left rear. It could always be a new one on there that hasn't been calibrated.

I had exactly the same problem with my D3 and had to get the compressor replaced. Also my extended warranty wouldn't cover it either. The new compressor is supposed to be a lot more reliable.

Which plan are you? The reason I ask is the electrical system is covered from $350 to $1400 depending on your level of cover. The compressor is electrical....

Hmmm - I bought my car from the same place as you got yours - was offered the extended warranty but declined. I am glad I did on the basis of your experience.

For those that have it, does the Allianz (not Alliance) extended warranty cover this sort of thing?

I'm feeling your pain brother.

Where did you get that price from. Thats better than my $2200 from Doncaster.

Hi Guys.
For what its worth Im just going through the same stuff with replacement compressor ( not the warranty part). Just got a price for new comp $990 plus aprox $350 to fit. Mechanic will check for other problems before fitting new.

$350 seems like a lot to fit. Should only take about an hour, including checking / clearing fault codes.

I replaced mine due to compressor completely failing but is a very simple process so am sure you could do it. If you can wait then try getting from England. I know should keep money in Aus but they are not realistic about these things. I was worried also but worked out rather well.
