DSC?


apologises , stands for dynamic stability control , u should have a button on ur dashboard

@gareth is extremely knowledgeable when it’s come to these vehicles , i just put the issue i had with my struts just as an example

but indeed as mentioned when it comes up raising slowly it normally means ur compressor is worn out, the incandescent beads inside the compressors dryer are blocked or have a leak

have u done the F26 fuse removal first to ensure there’s no drop overnight

with an iid tool u can see the live data of the compressor and what the system is doing , does make life a lot easier in diagnosing issues and pays for them selves very quickly

United Kingdom 2007 Discovery 3 TDV6 Base 7 Seat Manual Unknown ColourDiscovery 3

Any suggestions as to which compressor to buy if it turns out to be knackered?

My mechanic said he put in a cheap one a while back and it lasted 3 months...

Cheers

Is the EAS Control device from GAP good enough for this job?

Cheers

Suspension calibrated at the mechanics yesterday. He has a Snap On device which does the job. He said that you should really have a specific tool for measurement but it can be done with a tape measure.

The Snap On tool told him that EAS should be calibrated after changing a height sensor and one was changed at the start of all this grief but no calibration done.

Done about 15 miles so far and no red lights....could it be fixed???

I somehow doubt it.
