2006 Range Rover Rims & Suspension System Problems

[Rahman77R]

A few hours ago while driving my boss's Range Rover I noticed a malfunction on the suspension system. I set the suspension to it's highest position but after driving a few hundred meters the suspension lowered itself automatically to it's default position. Does anybody on ZTH know any mechanics or workshops that specializes in Range Rovers?

Also looking around for a set of rims to replace the dented 22" X 10JJ KAHN Design RS rims that came with the car. Having trouble finding 22" rims for Range Rover. Any recommendation on tires & rims shops?

Could it be these?:

- The air suspension can't drive on the highest position for extended period?
- You have a leak?

are there any errors displayed?

Try Hup Shun in Sunway. Not sure if he has 22" rims, but seen many huge rims there. Probably need to order if don't have....

Dented rims can fix..depends how bad..

Lowering itself, were you travelling at high speed? And the car lowers itself for aero purpose?

OFF-ROAD HEIGHT

Off-road height can be selected when the suspension is currently set to normal height, at any vehicle speed up to 70 km/h (43 mph). Press the up-arrow button on the electronic air suspension system controls. A confirmation message is displayed in message centre. See ELECTRONIC AIR SUSPENSION CONTROLS.

The off-road height setting is dependent on the vehicle's speed. The current off-road height setting is confirmed with an Off-Road (1) or (2) icon displayed on the touch screen, when the 4x4 info menu is displayed. See TOUCH SCREEN HOME MENU.

The Off-Road 1 height is 40 mm above the normal height setting, up to a maximum vehicle speed of 80 km/h (50 mph). The Off-Road 2 height is 75 mm above the normal height setting, up to a maximum vehicle speed of 50 km/h (31 mph). The suspension height can change automatically between these heights.

The Off-Road 2 height can be manually selected when at Off-Road 1 height, at any vehicle speed up to 40 km/h (25 mph). Press the up-arrow button on the electronic air suspension system controls.

To manually select the normal height suspension setting, press the down-arrow button on the electronic air suspension system controls. Alternatively, increase the vehicle's speed above 80 km/h (50 mph) to automatically set the suspension to normal height.

Went to Hup Shun Sunway last weekend. They told me for Range Rover 22" rims it would have to be ordered. My boss nearly got a heart attack when I told him the estimated price for 22" Range Rover rims which was RM20K+ including landed cost.

Hi Tom, a lot errors displayed on the meter. Will try to take some pictures of the errors displayed.
