Default Auto leveling suspension.

Hey, has anyone had to replace the compresor and the air suspension on the back of their Doscovery II series?. I have some frineds who had to and weren't very happy with the bill for the dealership. Another option that I heard is to take out the leveling system and put on the Old Man Emu suspensio. Any comments will be greatly appreciated.

Cheers!!

If you want some help with this, send me your number and I'll walk you thru what to do, before you buy more parts you may not need.

There are a lot of parts guys on the forum that sell parts a lot cheaper than the dealer. I would recommend calling them before you run to the dealer. Somethings you should get new, others if slightly used won't make a difference.

Default Self leveling system goes down on both sides

I have a Discovery 2003 HSE with self leveling system. The system will stay up overnight and just sat for 7 days without going down. Therefore does not seem to have leaks. However, it intermittently will go down--it seems on especially bumpy roads. Both sides go down. It will pump up manually after manually letting it down. Any ideas?

When it goes down, does it go down equally or more so on one side then the other, how many miles on your truck and have the bags ever been replaced?
