Hi,

I'll keep it short and sweet - stupidly i decided to raise my 2003 L322 TD6 to off-road height in order to crawl a back way out of a car park in La Rochelle, where im currently staying over night, en route to Portugal.

The car is stuck in off road mode - i need to get it fixed in order to get down to a wedding in the Pyrenees on Friday morning.

Am i ok in driving it as is and taking it steady?

Any help would be really appreciated!!

cheers,

grand-one

I have an 04 TD6 and have had issues with the suspension. If you drive over 30 mph it should drop back to normal height after giving you several messages on the dash to 'slow down - off road max 30mph'. Just dont go doing any sudden lane changes in full offroad height though!

Took it up past 30mph and it would release or return back to normal height, it says suspension inactive and self leveling inactive...

Going to try and find a LR dealer this morning...

wish me luck.

This required the replacement of the front half of the compressor on our car. Cost about £250 and took about 45 minutes. HTH
