Hi - just looking for any thoughts on this. I bought a new seal kit for the LR3 front valve block. Replaced like for like as I went through the valves etc. The bag with the seals, not labelled, so I am trying as best I can to match.

Anyway, put back together and it's hissing...leaking...not sure from where - I've soapy watered the lines in - they are not leaking - it's internal.

Any thoughts? I've pulled it apart twice now and first it was a slow leak. Now a more intense one...the car front end drops in a few hours. Thinking of just getting a new block period.

 

Update to this - it is still leaking, despite me reseating all the seals.

However, I did the soapy water test because I could hear air still escaping. Air is leaking from the snap-in 6 prong plug. It's only when it's plugged in - when removed it stops the air flow. Plug it in and it hisses again. Nobody ever mentions this...

I have ordered another, hoping this will solve it.

 

So weird, this is the second time I have hard of this. And the other time the system pressure would actually blow the connector right off the block! There must be some internal design that allows leaking into there, which is odd.
