Please enter me in the contest.
This is a FREE PRIZE DRAW for owners of 2004 - 2009 Air Suspension equipped Jaguar cars.
Forum member Bagpiping Andy has kindly offered to donate 2 Air Compressor repair kits to be used as prizes in a Prize Draw for these cars.
Quote:
The kit of parts I provide consists of: Precision machined PTFE piston ring
2 x new bolts with thread lock pre-applied
5 x cable ties
1x rubber o-ring
Printed guide/instructions how to fit the piston ring with photos to help
A little about Andy: A professional aerospace toolmaker machinist, he also enjoys fixing and making things in his spare time.
These kits are manufactured by him in his home workshop using his lathe and milling machine.

One question that pops up from interested people is where do I get the parts & what is the part
number?
I actually manufacture the piston ring on a lathe and a universal milling machine which I have in my
garage at home. I purchased the lathe and mill for small hobbies as I always had an interest in fixing
things, some ideas not so successful but the compressor kit is definitely one of the more successful
Solutions. I buy in the material in lengths of bar, get it into my garage, and out at the other end
comes a precision machined piston ring. I have been a toolmaker machinist since 1995 working for
major aerospace companies in the UK, and enjoy fixing and making things.
