Discover 4 Suspension

[Miffy]

Hi there,

The Landrover specialist in South Africa where I lived until earlier this year installed a program into my Disco 3 which allowed me to change the height of the car when going offroad to give me an extra 50mm lift. Since I returned back home to Melbourne I bought a disco 4 and would like to do the same thing.

While doing some research on the internet I stumbled upon Land Rover Passion who do an app and module to do this and I was wondering if any anybody had any experience with it or could advise on alternatives preferably locally made.

Thanks in advance.

I use this one and it is very popular

IIDTool - Gap Diagnostic

Do a search for LLAMS if you want a locally built, hardware based option

Otherwise the IID tool can give similar functionality, and might be fine for occasional use

Go for LLAMs - designed by a member on here - support local when you can.

Works with the twist of a knob - not need to plug anything in etc.

Thanks for the quick response. I'll look into these options.

Was the LR specialist Torqtune? They sell/install my Llams kits.

The LLAMS is a great piece of kit and I considered buying it very seriously as I already had a Nanocom for diagnostics etc. However, I ended up buying a GAP Diagnostic IID Tool Bluetooth version as it provided me with the functionality of the LLAMS plus the convenience of use by an app on my phone via Bluetooth. My main use is to lower the car to allow better access for my disabled wife. With the IID Tool I can lower it to bump stops and it is very low. I could not do this efficiently ( that is quickly) with the Nanocom which was important to me as I am usually needing to drop swmbo off where people are waiting behind me. You can set up three heights to use plus default. I sold the Nanocom to a member here and recouped some of it's cost. IMHO, if you don't have a diagnostic tool already the IID Tool is the way to go as it gives you much greater functionality.

If I was raising and lowering regularly I’d probably have invested in the LLAMS. As I only play when travelling to stop the wretched “slow down or ill lower and **** you off”, the inconvenience of loading up the IiD app etc is ok. Horses for courses

I was out playing in the sand yesterday (and getting bogged) and lifted the "D" to get the guts off the floor. Then a message came up on the dash saying that for further lift I should press the height altering button and put foot on brake and it worked. There was another message which said to lower the vehicle asap after use. I presume this was to avoid extra strain on CVs etc?

In extended / super extended height the vehicle is less stable and yes, probably risks other damage. It’s meant to be temporary only.
