Actually you can use the IIDTool for everyday height changes - there are plenty of people doing this (and this is also why we added the memory slots - to make the height changes quicker). It takes about 45-50 sec. to do (not including rummaging in the glovebox for the IIDTool :-p), so everyday...

SDD has its quirks - but you are definitely not limited by it. At least not in functionality. But the IIDTool is much quicker and easier to use. You would be limited by the IIDTool in regard to older models: we don't do the P38, D2, or pre-Puma (2006>) Defender. Too much development, not...

Glad it's working for you!

Hi Jymmie, Build mode = manufacturing mode. We do our best to use only LR terminology, but often it is ambiguous. We then try to use the most common terminology so as to try to keep confusion to a minimum. Actually, this is not completely true. While the EAS rarely throws a DTC immediately...

Actually it is very true. Of course dealers need to be paid - workers at the factory are paid for handling warranty claims as well. It's all about balancing the contractual obligations arising out of a warranty with the obvious desire to pay out as little as possible. Adding a little weight to...

Actually, you are completely correct. I have never understood how people can lift an EAS sprung vehicle purely on rods or an electronic/reprogramming lift, add ridiculously oversized tires, and think they've actually improved the off-road ability of the vehicle. The tires need to fit at full...

Hi Ian, Jymmie is right - it sounds like you're still in build mode (the results of tight tolerance are similar). You'll need to re-enable the EAS. And ECUs very rarely go bad (not just EAS ECUs). If you only had an issue with one height sensor, you should have been able to replace that sensor...

Are you 5'2" and 88lbs? Are you compensating for something?

Hi Chad, First: thanks for your help in checking the speedo correction. We do our best, but we are a small company and simply do not have the resources to test every feature ourselves in a reasonable time frame. Help from customers such as you in this regard is gold for us. :bowdown: Just as an...

That just made me spit coffee. LOL It's so true! I even get yelled at for trying be proactive about crap breaking! Generally they don't - that's the problem. They're generic head units with a LR splash screen and a model specific bezel. If you want it to work with the OEM amp and speakers, you...

Strange coincidence: I stumbled over this a couple of days ago. http://www.carnaviplayer.com/land-rover-discovery-3-aftermarket-navigation-head-unit-p-915 I know nobody that has purchased this. No idea on the company, quality, etc. Going aftermarket can have some advantages in that you can...

Quite sure they all come from the same factory in China.

This is true - but fridges are not always full. And you'll still need to get that beer even if it is the very last one. I think looking to other applications is actually a really good way of learning things rather than re-inventing the wheel every time. Boaters, especially sail boaters have...

Not to mention the door locks, HEVAC display, and the Mother of all ECUs the BeCM (ever had the windshield wipers come on while the car is parked in the garage? :-)) ). I still have my P38 as well (second owner). And I still love it. But there is def a steep learning curve to becoming a longer...

Well that shop was going to be taking you for a ride... Switching a P38 from air suspension to coils involves nothing more than replacing the air springs with coils and adding 2 jumper wires to the connector at the EAS ECU. Not counting the jumper wires, the costs should be more or les the same...

This is probably the most accurate, succinct comment I've ever read on the P38. Especially now that they are in the 20 year old category, you'll need to want one to be happy.

No. This is actually a very common misconception with air springs. Lifting a certain weight requires a certain pressure. If you do not change the weight, the pressure required to lift that weight will be the same at access height, standard-, and off-road heights. The volume of air in the air...

I don't know if I see the EAS, especially the modern LR EAS as a serious drawback to overlanding or even general offroading. There are definitely applications where a switch to coils might make sense. But as you note, the RRC/P38 EAS really isn't comparable to the later EAS systems, and later...

I can't say anything about the ride of the VB air suspension - the ride is very dependent on the design of the air springs and these seem to be proprietary in this system. I did meet a Swiss guy a number of years ago who had converted his D90 to air. He used OEM LR RRClassic air springs and...

zelatore: Thank you again, sir! I tip my hat in your direction. :-)) ColoDisco: Great! Looking forward to having you on board!
