Thanks for replying.
The disco is on air suspension with 70k miles with full service history.
Hope this is enough info.

we had this on our 52 plate disco and it was just the air suspension leveling out on start up think it was a leaky air bag or something to check that make up a washing up liquid soloution and pour it over them before you start it in the morning but not to much to worry about

If the Air bags are leeking, it will make the copressor work harder, air bags are about 75 pounds a corner, the compessor is about 300 pounds

Every third time you switch on the ecu does a self check on the abs (and possibly others), if all is well you will get the three chimes. It took me a month before i read it here. Hope this puts your mind at rest, it did mine.
