After reading all this stuff about EAS, i am glad i am on coils. This stuff is just way beyond me.
I thought the same many years ago but after spending heaps of money with so called specialists I read forums (rangeroversnet specifically ) many times....over the last 2 years I have rebuilt the EAS ie: valve block,compressor,airbags,dryer etc. Actually it's quite straight forward and once you've driven and towed with it nothing comperes IMHO .
Yeah it sounds complex mate, but it's really quite simple (once you've had an inside look at how it works via Faultmate/nanocom/storey wilson, etc).
So what is LR charging for a calibration these days?
Has anyone enquired lately?
Maybe we could organise a group buy? 😇
Pay for them with Bit coins? :angel::wasntme:Quote:

Now it works flawlessly. That was the final key needed. Now for some air bag spacers so I can mess it up again... :D
Let me know what you think of the Gen II's ride quality on & off road, I've been reading mixed reviews...
Well I made a set of Std height blocks and some mayhem ensued !
When it was resting on the blocks I got a "bad height sensor data" error, so I suspect the standard position has wear on the height sensors.
Tomorrow I will swap right with left and see what happens

If that's for your 1999 then I don't believe swapping from side to side will help you as LR started fitting handed sensors in 1997 unfortunately.
Maybe I'm wrong? Although I double-checked on RAVE and it definitely shows a change to the "newer" sensor in 1997.
I think you may have it backwards.Quote:

Hmm, interesting! I was fairly certain I had it right, but that wouldn't be the first time I've made a mistake! Time for me to do some more research. I'll be happy if that is the case (for mine anyhow)!
I just swapped the sensors around on a '95 that had it's original sensors (the bigger, slightly domed ones), which fixed the issue with one sensor having a dead spot... a bit puzzled now... :angel:
