self levelling gone berserk
« on: 09 March 2009, 11:57:59 »
Afternoon everyone - the self levelling on my ex plod 3.2 has shot the rear up like a 4x4 - most embarrasing! any ideas how to get it done again?

When mine packed up (seized solid), I just gave it a whack with a broom stick and that sorted that.

It doesn't look that great TBH - plus bounces over every bump! Was fine til the missus made me drive her "gravitationally challenged" mate to the airport... :-X handled all that plod gear no worries but she blew it!

Quite possibly - an object with that mass must produce something :-?

Have you tried stroking it gently and saying 'she's gone now'? :D

Turns out the compressor was completely shot...so now on normal shocks. Handles better TBH.
