Thread: Seriously? Another Inskip embarrassment.

Other than that, you’re spot on...

Amusingly, if they had laid out their maxtrax (sitting up on the roof) to ramp it up and get going they would have done a lot better.

It does not appear to be on the bump stops to me ?

The comments say the suspension lowered due to height sensor failure so if one fails the LR design strategy is to lower to the bump stops?

Planning a drive along stockton beach with D4 factory 20inch wheels wish me luck!!

If suspension fails like above will my new gaptool save the day?

Would a diagnostic tool allow a person to disable that sensor or put in an offset to allow the suspension to raise?

Would have thought LR code program writers could have included.

suspension initiates/allows extended mode in the event of height sensor fail when in low range, for example

Curious about about what front recovery point the D3 was using?

If its the factory one it was sure taken some punishment.

IIDTool can!

Is it possible to manually control the air suspension? - Gap Diagnostic

Stop for a second and think about that...

How, with a failed sensor, does it know?

It wouldn’t know when to stop

I just hope that Old Mate in the D2 wasn't using his own snatch strap, This is exactly why I refuse to use my own strap on someone else's truck.

If only one sensor or maybe two on one axle are out of range,

you select low range.

it enables susp extended mode!

Yes. I get that bit..

But if it doesn’t have a working sensor it can’t find extended height!
And would therefore extend to mechanical failure!

The sensor is needed to let the vehicle know how high that corner is and in any scenario requires it.

The only way to avoid this is manual control either via a manual inflation device or using IID and manually lifting and stopping yourself (still potentially able to over inflate/extend).

See what I’m saying
