United Kingdom 2012 Discovery 4 3.0 TDV6 XS Auto Santorini BlackDiscovery 4

Yipee, Razz Went to the local LR garage to pick up my D3 and was greeted by a bill which LR had decided to pay half. The compressor had indeed "gone" but they subsidised me for some reason. (3 and 1/2 years old). Quality....

Booo, Big Cry Playing around with the suspension at home and its clear it has not been repaired correctly. Rear raises then the front takes 30 secs if not more to raise. The typical "will raise when cooled appeared". The manuel does say that this is not a problem!! For me it is, anyone else?

If you play with it you're very likely to get the message raising slowly or will raise when cool. It's not designed to go up and down between levels like a yo yo!

Thanks Phil,

I realise that! But I would expect for the first 2 times at least this would be fine. It does not react as before the old compressor broke so I guess it's back to Markotters for another visit.

Back to the dealers then. Good Luck.

Any idea why LR decided to contribute to the bill or did you press them to cough up all or part of it?

Bit of a language barrier with the dealer as I am in Germany. The dealer just said that LR had paid half, now that does not happen very often.

At least the compressor waited until I had finised an 1800mile journey to/from Italy with a twin axle caravan. Pheww.
