I'm guessing the suspension is the same. Have you called them and asked already?

Bummer. Can't help on the sitting higher part but if you find someone with the right diagnostic computer they can turn off the EAS in your LR3s computer.

It's not clear to me what you guys are saying.

@Roverrrgirl what do you mean by "to eliminate suspension fault?" If you currently have a fault in your EAS then yeah bypassing it and going coils will likely take care of that, although I wouldn't suggest it. If you mean that you want to install a system that will "take care of" nuisance messages that you might otherwise get by installing coils, then I'd consult the guys that make it. Sounds like you have and that you're SOL for the V6.

@abran I'm not sure if by-passing the EAS using say an IIDTool (like using Build Mode) will truly achieve what Roverrrgirl wants. It may be worth a shot, but again it depends on whether the goal is to just make the EAS inop or if it's to install an integrated coil setup that will "talk to" the EAS computer and keep it happy.

...and I have to issue my standard disclaimer: if you are going to use your LR3 for off-roading, it's a bad idea to remove the EAS.

Default To explain ;)

Sorry I want to explain: I currently have a susp fault (amber/red) and after replacing the compressor and many diagnostics(C1A13), replacing module Sensor and more testing $$ I'm tired of it and thinking of going with the coil conversion. I'm not going off roading but I do have 31.5 " wheels on the car...will the standard coil conversion fit these tires or should I chose the 2" lifted kit? Btw just confirmed with Atlantic British the module WILL work on V6
I like air ride..I own a RR but I'm just tired of this LR3 susp tissue

Yeah, I just checked. I can turn off the EAS with my autologic, but it will show a fault on the dash. The only way to truly disable and not have any faults on the dash is with the bypass module.

Good luck
