Compressor

Looks like my air comp is playing up
Turn car on ok raise it up ok
Lower it ok
Start driving it ok
About 10mins in and it comes up normal suspension only or something
Stays like that till stop and turn the engine off and back on again and does the same thing
New compressor or not Sad

Yes you can

Hi
It can be driven without the compressor but it's no fun it's like driving a 2.5ton go kart avoid holes ripples speed bumps like the plague the tyres are your suspension.
It's much easier to remove if you can get it on a ramp, the compressor is held on with three bolts and has three air pipes and two electrical connections.
Disco Mikey did a how too search for his post and if it's the compressor you can get parts to repair from Landyair on eBay
I fixed mine for £80 rather than LR £500+
Cheers
