    Confirmed.

    On my LR4MY10 the front valve block and Voss connectors are M10/1 threads.

    I haven’t seen any 6mm push fits with an M10 thread, so the M10 to 1/8 BSP adaptor will have to be used to fit the 1/8 BSP push fits instead.

    I guess this is why the GOE kit had the adaptors.

    I’ll head into Enzed and see about getting that coupling half tapped to M10 for use on the Voss end. Then we have the makings of a kit.

    Search for PC6-M10 and you’ll find what you need.

    Thanks Tombie!

    I found some on eBay but they’re from China (delays). Sent them a question anyway asking if they have female & male versions.

    I like the idea of the brass ones. Trying to find some locally...

    Another option appears to be available

    Hello all

    Just joined up yesterday as I am researching buying a Discovery 4 (hopefully a 2015 SDV6) and have found so much of the info here incredibly useful.

    One thing I have come across in my other research is a Spanish company that makes another emergency air up kit called Fastkit Faskit Info - Partsrover
    To my newbie eyes it appears to meet the needs of this discussion and of interest appears to be working well with a 150psi portable compressor.

    Interested to hear what more experienced heads think?

    Hello All,
    I was following this thread and forgot about the great work being done.
    Anyhow, I'm soon to be embarking on a reasonable outback road trip and wonder if anything has progressed since 2020?

    How did you get on Disco4TT3?

    Cheers
    Ralph

    After reading this whole thread, Im tending to think just having a spare compressor and the ability to tap it into the system to fill the reservoir without swapping it would be a easy backup compromise. Also some spares for repairs like air line and joiners.

    I have a 2nd air tank and a mounted compressor, i have considered running some tee fittings with valves between the 2 but the likely hood of a compressor failing without warning is rare.
    You are more likely to damage an air line or split a bag, air line can be patched but nothing short of a spare strut with repair a split/leaking bag.

    This is a great hack considering someone like you and me who do remote trips or towing heavy rigs behind the car in a long distance. Definitely is on my waiting list now
