Just a quick question before i go ordering new parts....

I've done lots and lots of reading on this site over the past few months and learnt a lot about the EAS system, so a big thank you to you all :thumb:

The day after a brief bit of offroading - the front end wouldn't come up and the front left corner was hissing rather nicely (not the airline on the top unfortunately)...

So i jacked her up and had a look and listen -air coming out of the gap you can see

Should the front bag look like this when jacked up?:-

Looks like it has over extended and separated as i can see the tube in the middle.

The Arnott bags are date stamped 2003 (old stock?) and were fitted within the last year or so by the previous owner - they are in good condition as far as i can tell

Many thanks in advance

Not ideally, but they should re-seat ok. Then just keep an eye on the car when you get into it every morning. If it is on the bump stops, it is probably leaking.

Thank you for the quick reply :thumb:

So it doesn't look terminal....is there anyway i can aid the re-seating?
I cannot get the bag to seal, it just leaks constantly and won't come off the bumpstops.

Also, does anyone have a screen print from the superb free EAS software, or a set of numbers for a fairly standard suspension setup that show heights the system should be set to?
I did wonder if it has over extended in offroad mode as it seems to sit very high.

Many thanks again :thumb:

There is a full write up on the main site, looks easy enough. :thumb:

Look for "Procedure with Air Spring Still Fitted to the Vehicle"
