Just keep in mind the accumulator (reservoir) is on on the other side - don't go tearing into this side - CW's comment about it being on the passenger's side is referring the the vehicles RIGHT side - not the LEFT (as is the passengers side for you and i).
CORRECT! I always forget to check where posters are from.

Ye got that, started to strip but not a five minute job and need it for work tomorrow, doing my head in. Changed both ride height sensors as that was showing as fault, now showing one valve stuck open. Just got a mate to reset the fault and five minutes down the road self level inactive fault is back with low tyre pressure symbol, dread having to take to a dealer as can’t afford to lose an arm and a leg 🤣
Looks like I need to get a solenoid module before stripping the underside covers off

Well gents, managed to replace the solenoid unit after two scrap dealers had faulty ones one had a good one. Once I got the covers off replacing the unit was fine, had a couple of leaks but all good.
Car ran for three days with no issue 🤣 three days well chuffed, but then the fault came back sort of, the raise lower buttons did not go out this time so replaced the regulator arm on the front left and will take for a spin tomorrow to see how it goes
Up to now I have replaced two regulator arms, two regulator sensors and a solenoid unit, only the EHC11 to replace, let’s hope not

🙈
