Default Hello from the Northwest of England

Hi All,

I have owned Jags for a while now and my current collection includes; 2003 XJR Wald Black Bison, 2003 XKR Typhoon 450, 1995 XJS Convertible and a wreck of a 1956 XK140 FHC...

I'm just about to fit coilovers to my XJR, after having no end of trouble with the air suspension system. All 4 airbags have been replaced with new and I have also refurbished the air compressor with the kit from Bagpiping Andy. After approx 12 months from installation, one of the rear airbags is leaking and the other is very squeaky. The Air Suspension Fault light is a regular visitor to the display. I have read the Forums with interest regarding the replacement of the airbags with coilovers and have purchased a kit from MaxPeedingRods recently. My 2003 XJR is a Japanese import, with a manufacture date of January 2003. My question is; prior to the installation of the coilovers, what precautions do I need to take in terms of removing all potential error codes that may result from this move..? Is it simply a case of unplugging the ASM and removing fuses..? My system does have the CATS. Any advise would be greatly received.

Thanks in advance... Damian
