    Do the lot in one go - not expensive and saves having to pull it out again - do it once and do it correct.

    I agree. But if you don't put that top bolt back in you can get real quick at it D3 Air SuspensionD3 Air SuspensionD3 Air Suspension

    I'll measure my extension, it's just a plain 1/4" but it's unreal for that job

    Relay and main fuse a source of trouble that wear out over time and cause glitches. Cheap to replace and eliminate.

    I’ve got a spare Hitachi and GAP Tool near Fremantle for a demo on what needs servicing.

    The issue I had with a Range Rover sport was the vent filter on the compressor was blocked and didn’t empty quick enough so went to off road height Not sure why but code came up as gallery not emptying soon enough
    Not sure if it’s the same compressor but a small hole drilled in the filter sorted mine

    A hole drilled in the “filter”. Now where did I put the face slap emoji?

    Be better off removing the filter altogether then, seeing as it's not doing anything now. Might save some weight....

    Hi all
    Many thanks to everyone that has helped with suggestions / advice.

    I've got the full X8R kit in transit from the UK - should be here in the next few days, so will start on the compressor first and see how I go - also got valve block redress kits coming.

    I've also got a new GoPro, so will put together a video when I do the compressor and post here for anyone else looking for reference material

    Good stuff, note that there's also a heap of good film by one of the suppliers,but none of them show the compressor removal from the car itself.
