    Having taken off my compressor a number of times I left the top bolt off the bracket as it was such a pain to get in with the compressor on the bracket. Just seen on a forum a neat solution. Cut a slot the width of the bolt stud on the bracket leave bolt located in nutsert on frame when replaci g or removing just slid out after loosening bolt. Really good idea.

    On the difficult top bolt of the mounting frame, an open ended slot would work well , I managed by using a modified extension universal and black electrical tape

    Hi Just repaired compressor and have your fixing kit, watched video on refit a number of times and have a question. The top cover needs to be in place first, do you fit bracket then compressor or do yo partially fit the compressor to the bracket then fit brack to car. That top bolt is very difficult to replace so easy way is to fit bracket first but how to you fix the top bolt to the compressor not much room left any guidance would be appreciated Terry Rensch

    Christian Stenger exactly the same problem I have, if you refit the bracket with the top insulating cover on, it's impossible to tighten that top bolt in. And if you fit the compressor to the bracket before fitting the bracket back onto the chassis, it's then impossible to get at the top bracket bolt...... in fact I can't understand how they actually do this when they build the car in the first place !

    Hi. i took my 2008 range rover sport to a shop because loud noise of air under pressure escaping from the air compressor located at the rear wheel. The plastic cover has a light crack but they say that it was enough to brake the line that comes out of the release valve. They say I need to replace the whole compressor. This compressor is new I just changed it 7 months ago after repairing the entire suspension system. Is there a way to fix it. how much longer will it last working. It works fine but makes a loud noise every time it releases the air pressure. I have no failure lights on and is working fine. do you have an email to send you the pics? thank you

    The part that is broken seems to be part of the "air dryer" that is on the side of the compressor. On the Hitachi compressor you can buy the air dryer assembly on its own from Land Rover but not on the AMK. There is one for sale on ebay though www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DISCOVERY-4-RANGE-ROVER-SPORT-AMK-SUSPENSION-COMPRESSOR-PUMP-DRYER-DRIER-/262799219373?hash=item3d300ddaad:g:et0AAOSwUKxYculk

    Please provide detailed info on price for Hitachi compressor and the website to purchase those custom bolts/sizes/lock-nuts/lug-nut, etc. My Supercharged is having the same reduced output issue: "Suspension Fault - Normal Height Only" which clears when I shut-off and restart and then comes on again when compressor is filling/pressurizing too slowly... When the fault isn't on, the suspension seems fine although it sometimes rides rough d/t pressure issues... Please help! I need information where to purchase the bolts/fittings etc and I can also purchase a new Hitachi compressor and then have my local mechanic do the re-fitting/install. Please provide more info ASAP as my babe/pride is swaying and riding rough when it hits the slightest of bumps, which is embarrassing to say the least; thanks.
