LR3 Air Suspension issue - won’t raise
#11
update: GAP tool arrived and scanned for faults
- C1A30-64 (AF): Both switches pressed at the same time - Algorithm based on failure - signal plausibility failure
Since the last post and before GAP tool arrived, I re-installed stock rods on the height sensors and vehicle has been holding air. However, front driver side is lowest than rest of vehicle. Red suspension light will come and give "max 30 mph" message then turns amber if speed is reduced to 25-30 mph or less.
Any ideas on what to check now?

Need a reliable SUV
Hi,
I am currently a Toyota Tacoma owner ,but now have a family. I need something reliable and 4 wheel drive with more room. I love the LR3 ,but have never owned one and everyone I ask says that they are money pits and break down all the time. I have found the 2008 LR3 with high miles but I dont want to keeping something that is in the shop all the time. Please help guys. Thanks. Name is MIke FYI.

Same symptoms: front left dipped and opposite is much higher, cannot use have height switch to switch modes.
I used GAPtool Service Test function to check the air valve blocks. This allowed to get the front to raise and level out. The rear leveled as well BUT will not raise. So, it seems I may need to check the electrical connection to rear valve block (changed o-rings 2 weeks ago), or replace it.
Then, once I restore rear valve block I should be able to re-calibrate and all should be fine.
Am I on the right track? Anything else to keep an eye on?

The culprit was the rear air block valve electrical connection wiggled itself loose and why the GAPtool couldn’t raise the rear of LR3. I snapped it back into place and Rover is happy. The right diagnostic tool, this forum, & online manuals are a life saver.
Easy and no cost to fix except GAP tool expense (or investment) which will save me thousands down the road !!!!
