Hi all, I noticed that the LR4 I purchased has had coil over struts installed. I also noticed the air tank is very corroded. If I remove the tank and compressor will I have error lights coming on? Any other potential issues with removal?
Thanks

 

If the air struts are already removed and you have no error lights it indicates that it was already programmed and removal of the compressor and tank should not have any effect; however, i would probably replace the compressor, tank, blocks and struts as the air system is so superior to the coils/shocks.

 

Thanks for the reply.
In the long run I would like to do that. First I want to get this thing on the road and make sure it is worth further investment.

 

When I get it powered up again I will have to see what errors are showing up before I disconnect the compressor. There were many when I first got the vehicle home. Rebuilding the alternator right now. A thin layer of rust had formed on the rotor and stator seizing them to each other. Must be a very close tolerance. That's all cleaned up, just waiting for a new brush set to arrive.

 

I have the vehicle running now, repaired many issues. I now have more knowledge about electronic parking brakes than any one man should have and can remove and install the module in the time it takes to have a coffee.
I still have some drive train and suspension errors. My question is, what errors can I expect from the coil over conversion if the vehicle hasn't been programmed for the changes? The work order from the garage that installed the coils for the previous owner makes no mention of any programming or module installation. I trying to narrow down what gremlins to chase and what to ignore for now.

Thanks in advance
