......
When your compressor's weren't working, what was the feel of the rear suspension? Mine on the Elite seems okay but a bit bumpy & rock hard when going over speed bumps. I'm just not sure that it should be like that.

Is this still with the original self levelling dampers? If so .... that'll be the reason it feels hard at the back, your dampers should be lifting the car up via the compressor. If the compressor is fubar'd I might consider oridnary dampers ..  :-/

Compressor seems fine. Initial problem was a leaking pipe going from the 'T' piece up to the passenger rear shocker. Found when I replaced a blown fuse & the compressor fired back into life & traced hissing sound. Now replaced both sides.

Still hard though....  :(
