We have a 1998 Discovery TD5 for just over a year. We have had a problem with the air suspension ( on the passenger side only) where occasionally it will completely deflate. This happens quite quickly. One minute it is at the correct level and then, the next time we look, it is down.
The land rover dealership said straight away that it is a leak on the air spring, but surely this isn’t the case as, if it was a leak, it would do this every night. Sometimes it doesn’t happen for weeks. This is a common fault. Like many rubber products, the air springs have a tendency to perish over a period of time. We have had customer’s vehicle coming to us for fixing only to find that when we park them up sometime for two days they have not dropped at all. We then have to resort to raising the vehicle at unusual angles to detect or confirm the leak.
