    so in light of these crazy puppies prices we are going down the mine field route of having a little from my bitch! we are between a rock and hard place at the moment as all will go to working homes (this is a condition to use having a litter) we clearly don't want to just give them away but want to be fair! being a breed that isn't out on the popular market there isn't really a price guid to go off! 

    anyone here shed some light on calculating price of a pedigree BMH

    thanks in advance

    The saga continues!!! So I had a leak on a pipe from the compressor!!! However!! With that sorted they noticed a squeal from the front end!! Crossover pipe leaking from somewhere!!! Apparently it’s not safe to drive !!! Bloody landrover

     

    i cannot see why this wood be a major issue! But it’s a pig of a job where ether gear box out or shell off just to gain access!

    Depending on what code reader you are using it may not read the suspension fault codes... only a specific diagnostic tool such as GAP or Hawkeye or LR dealer specific can read them.  Also for the EGR delete, depends what year your Disco 3 is... 2004/2005 do not need a modification to the CCF (config file) to turn off the fault, but as you have seen, they still report an EGR fault when scanned, 2006 onwards need the CCF modifying using the GAP tool or similar.

    If it's lowering itself to access height on its own, and then resetting to normal height when you cycle the ignition then you should definitely see some fault codes reported. It's not a leak, that would lower one corner or the front or back.

    A good test would be to get it into normal height mode, and then measue the distance from the center of the wheel hub to the bottom of the wheel arch on each corner, it should be 465mm front and 485mm rear. Then remove fuse F26, this prevents the self levelling functions from working, it stops any of the valve blocks opening. It should hold at the correct height. You can drive it like this but you may get the suspension fault light coming on.

    If your ride heights are off, then you will need a GAP tool coded to your car to re-calibrate it, or find someone with the pro version that can work registration free.

    At the risk of sounding like a broken record, if you have the suspension fault light showing, there will be associated fault codes, you just need the right scan tool.

    If you have some spare time, vist https://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/   and you will find plenty of advice on fixing D3 suspension problems.

    Mat many thanks for this.. will get her booked in I think and see if they can set it.. it’s not to much of an issue it’s more annoying on the odd trip where you have to stop and start !!

    So my cars all seem to be going tits up!! I use a disco 3 fairly often and over the last few days it’s started to throw up very intermittent suspension faults! All the suspension settings go off and she lowers herself! Turn her off and on and she is right as rain! Anyone get any ideas? I suspect the hight sensor but could be wrong
