Thought it was sorted

So after what seems like loads of problems I limped my RRS into the dealer to find the compressor was knackered. Fortunately covered under warranty. Got it home thinking all now needed was lower arm suspension bushes, came out next morning and its listing to the left a lot! When I start it the compressor sorts it out nice and level but if I leave it a few hours it starts to drop! back to the main dealers again, hope this is also covered by warranty! wonder at what point I could say this is a dog of a car!

You probably don't want to here this Crying or Very sad but my 2005 was a never ending cash pit - the week before I sold it ( deposit had been taken ) I had to spend another £500 Big Cry

I just wouldn't let it beat me but at times I can honestly say - I felt enough was enough Big Cry

I will not purchase another Sport without warranty - at-least you've got that Thumbs Up 16MY Estoril Blue SVR.............
17MY Autobiography Dynamic - Corris Grey - WOW.
14MY Autobiography Dynamic - SDV6 - Fuji White Smile
12MY Autobiography - SDV6 - Santorini Black - Dual View - Rear Entertainment - Sunroof.
12MY Autobiography - SDV6 - Orkney Grey - awesome ;(
2005 Java Black - 4.2 V8 Supercharged First Edition- will never be forgotten ;(

The leaning to the left problem is probably just one of the valve blocks. They're cheap and relatively quick to replace so, even without a warranty, it's not too big a deal. It's possible that when they changed the compressor they let some dirt get in to the system and this has contaminated a valve. Impossible to prove, of course, but not too difficult to sort. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed
