    Thank you - solved fault code on my Disco 3 - first I serviced the compressor then changed this middle valve, fault was C1A18-64.
    The yellow light had been on for weeks and as I didn't have any issues with the suspension for a long time suddenly it started going into limp mode. Firstly the fault code said 'suspension rising slowly" Fault C1A20 so I serviced the compressor - car still went into limp mode and fault code changed to C1A18 - middle valve block seems to have sorted it for now. It's thanks to guys like Hazy who take the time to explain faults and resolutions that saves us money. Sometimes a £1500 dealer bill can be sorted for £50! Cheers..

    Great vid. Very instructive.
    I said I'd get back to you about my L320 suspension issues about 2 years ago.
    I've replace the rear valve block, rear shocks and had other problems to deal with like Bearings, brakes and such, but will be doing this middle valve block very soon.
    So, my way overdue update is that I am still working at it.
    This truck has been much work over the past 4yrs but we do enjoy it.
    Thanks for all of your help with the great vids and for you help when I've asked questions previously.
    You are obviously a scholar and truly a gentleman.
    Thanks again!
    Be safe and God bless!😎👍

      If the suspension becomes too big of a headache it's sometimes easier/more reliable to swap to coils. I did that to my L320 RRS and it has 160K miles so far, basically rids you of all suspension issues.

      Yes, I have been considering that. Do you remember what coil over package you bought? I don't want to waste any more time and money buying junk if at all possible... you never know what your getting until it's too late sometimes. 🤷‍♂️
      I did the middle valve block today and apparently I did something wrong. Now I get the "normal height only" immediately on ignition.
      I had a tough time w the hose connections and think at least 1 may be too far out for a good seal. It's odd though as the compressor doesn't even think about kicking on. I get the dash warning as soon as I press ignition to on position.(do I need to reset any codes after the valve replacement?)
      I'm gonna try again tomorrow.
      Thanks again for all the help over the years.

      @@kevinfelisberto4204 Yes I bought the lifted conversion kit from Atlantic British, this one specifically: www.roverparts.com/suspension/air-coil-suspension-kits/L319SRK-OMEHL/, that was in May 2020 and I haven't had any issues since then. Regarding the code clearing I don't think you'll need to, immediate code makes me think the wiring might be loose or a fuse/relay is out.

      @@HazyJay Thanks for the reply again! The info and the link too!
      Ironically, I never saw your reply until now as I was coming back here to tell you that did do the conversion.
      Turns out I actually did exactly that! I ended up buying and installing that exact same kit from Atlantic Brittish that you suggested and installed yourself... but before I saw your comment. So that's pretty cool!
      It's a great set up and I am very happy with the ride so far.
      Interesting you mentioned the possibility of a bad relay because of the immediate fault. You also mentioned that I may not need to clear any codes after my install.
      I saw a few install vids and in 2 of them the codes did clear. 1 imediately, and the other after a few resarts.
      Unfortunatkey I still have the in dash warnings and also no off road special programs option either. The annoying tone that sounded when the 35mph warning comes up has gone away and it only tells me that upon startup, but the red triangle stays on all the time and I cannot access the special off road options still.
      Do you think that may still be happening due to the suspension relay being bad? (all fuses seem fine).
      After I did the wiring, everything else about the truck seems fine... everything works!
      I even had it aligned, wheels balanced and gave it an oil change at a local Sullivan Tires. I asked them to clear the suspension codes for me while they were clearing the oil change. They said they did but obviously either they messed up or it just wouldn't work.
      I ended up ordering a $100 OBD2 code reader/clearer from ANCEL. It will supposedly clear the suspension codes. Should be delivered Saturday.
      If you think the relay might possibly be my problem... maybe I'll order a new one. I replaced it a few years ago when all the trouble started so I figured it was still good... but maybe it's no good now?🤷‍♂️
      Please let me know your thoughts.
      As always, I really do appreciate all of your help over the years. You have been a God sent for me in my battle! Your vids are excellent tutorials and the character you've shown all of us who've reached out to you is top notch!

    Wow, these are the clearest and most straight forward instructions I’ve come across yet. However as per my mechanic diagnosis of leaking front air springs and a faulty compressor, I decided to do the job myself. The $4000 price tag was the deciding factor. The actual parts replacement went without a hitch, however upon staring the car, the compressor ran for quite sometime with the car raising an inch. I turned off the car to prevent damage to the née compressor. Once cooled down I tried again, but the compressor no longer runs. I bypassed the relay and the compressor is still operational.
    It appears the reservoir is the only thing that filled, as removing this connection from the middle air block caused a lot of air to escape.
    I removed the air block and solenoid and cleaned both to no avail. Would really appreciate some tips as where to go next.
    Cheers Craig

    • @HazyJay
      @HazyJay  3 года назад +2

      When the entire system is depressurized the compressor will need to fill the empty springs and the reservoir, this does take a little while. Sometimes the compressor will fault due to getting too hot and the car will need to be restarted, this can take 3-4 car starts for the compressor to fill the reservoir and all of the springs.
      If the compressor is no longer running at all (when when the car starts), there is likely a blown fuse or relay, typically it will run for a bit when the car is started.
      Consider watching my video entitled "sagging overnight", it explains how the air system works and how to dx a leak, if there is leak from the spring or a valve block you will be able to find it using the method outlined.

      I get random suspension faults, that clear when I restart the vehicle. Car can raise to and lower from off road no problems. However, I will not lower to valet height. The front lowers, but the back will attempt, then kick back up and put the entire car into off road mode. This again will clear when retarting the vehicle.
      Car does not sag, even when left in off road over night.
      Could this be the rear valve block or the ride height sensors?

    No codes come up on Scanner saying only Communication Network failure or something so we started guessing.
    Rear Valve Block changed ..then Front Valve Block changed..still same issue.

    I have a 2013 RRS. Suspension is having fault issues and will not raise properly all of the sudden and I get suspension fault while driving. If I stop the vehicle and turn if off and then back on again the fault goes away, however it will come back. The vehicle will show fine in Access Hight, however, when I start to drive it eventually will automatically begin to try to raise to Normal Hight without me ever making a selection to put it to normal height. I can hear the compressor pumping but nothing happens. While I am driving and it is attempting to raise on its own to Normal Hight, (and I will even stop to try to let it do so, but it will not) and eventually I get a dash message that says that the vehicle will raise when the system cools; however, when the system cools and it again says that it is rising it is not. the rear is holding air and if I attempt to get out and push access level, the vehicle will drop in the rear, but nothing is happening that I can see up front, except, sometime I thing I see the front raise a bit when I try to get it to go to solid light on Access level. For the most part the "up arrow" is lit trying to go from Access level to Normal level but it will not go. Sometimes I also get a message that the suspension is in "Extended Mode" whatever that is, and to reset height once I have cleared an obstacle; however, I never did anything or made any type of button selection for "Extended Mode". There does not appear to be any leaking about the Air Suspension bags that I can hear; however, if is push on the rubber bags below the main portion of the strut, I can hear air, but there seem to be two factory made holes near the bottom of each rubber cover. I have taken off that dampening cover where the compressor is located and I also do not hear any air leaking from the compressor, which I did not was an AMK compressor. The ride is clearly a bit bouncy and when I get the waring red suspension fault and not to go over 30 MPH the vehicle is extremely bouncy. When that happens I pull off of the road stop the vehicle turn it off, wait a minute and then restart and the vehicle suspension fault goes away but of course the cycle just starts all over. What thoughts do you have? The compressor will run but it does get hot. When I had the dampening cover off, I noted is was very hot to the touch and while it is pumping nothing seems to be happening and I do not hear air escaping from anywhere. Is this a mid-valve issue? What should I do to trouble shoot and repair? Any help and direction you can provide me would be greatly appreciated. I do not know if I can leave my email but it is drtoney67@gmail.com if it will show up. Can I call you? Desperate! Thank you! Dennis

    • @HazyJay
      @HazyJay  4 месяца назад

      The vehicle will automatically rise from access height to normal height when it reaches a certain speed (8 mph?), but given your compressor is overheating it's likely worn out and needs replacing. The original compressor only lasts around 50-80k miles if you're lucky.

    I have a 2011 sc and my front right would go low for about a year then the front left. So I had it taken to DuSouth in Dallas. They replaced both front struts and the air compressor for about 3k. That's without taking care of a click sound I would here driving around parking lot. So the right started going low 2 months later so I took it in for warranty. They replaced the from right because it started leaking again.. Who knows why? But the also replaced the sway bar assembly which alone costed like 2200. 2500 after shipping. I had them replace the differential fluid since it was already there. 130k miles. Ended up spending another 3700. I've had the gas tank small evap leak fixed that was like 700 at land Rover and that was the second time I had that done. First time was in college station and didn't want to go back for warranty since I live in dfw. While in college station I also had a head gasket seal, maps sensor, and a manifold hose replaced, and tuneup with new plugs that was like 2200. Last week I dropped off a wing to get painted 200 for the wing and 315 for the paint and I'm putting it on myself. The top part of my wing flew off from bieng old and separating.. I'm about 1 more repair away from losing my sh*t. Hahaha Just remembered I replaced my coolant reservior a month ago because it kept saying it was low but wasn't using one of your videos. That one wasn't bad 40 bucks and half an hour. Anyone have any idea on how to put in new tpms sensors without taking it to land Rover?? Tired of seeing the tpms light come on

      Wow that's a lot of repairs. That's one reason I switched to coil springs, the EAS has too many problems to constantly be fiddling with them. Regarding the TPMS sensors, you can try removing USB accessories from the cabin as these can sometimes interfere with the signal. Things like USB adapters, power inverters, dash cams, etc.

    • @HazyJay
      @HazyJay  Год назад

      Usually when the valve block leaks, it doesn't leak "around" the block, rather the seals will leak back to the compressor to vent. Because of this, spraying soapy water on the valve block might not show bubbles even though it is "leaking" back to the compressor and allowing the front to sag. I would start with replacing the front valve block since it's relatively cheap, if you still have issues let me know.

      Well the C1A13-64 error is usually a problem with venting OUT air, the solenoids can get stuck closed if clogged with water as well as the compressor vent itself. You can consider changing the rear solenoid to see if that unsticks the rear end.

    Ive gone thru so many ebay compressors. In one day they with a leak at the valve body they take a bullet. I have a question, how many PSI should be at the blue tab on the dry when full. My obd2 says theres 250lbs in system. Is there supposed to be that many at the hose/blue tab? Those always go first. Next i found a leak at the middle rear hose on that valve block. Does the valve block shut off the psi to the tank? Because at this leak my lr3 drops down after a day.
    Can you do a videos showing the functionality of this valve body? Like what does the switch do? What stops the psi from coming back out the tank, etc. Maybe we're the air tank check valve is at. Maybe the system is not discharging after pumping up causing too much psi at the valve block.

    I have a 2010 RRS. The suspension seems to work fine. When putting the vehicle into off-road height, it stays up overnight without issue. The problem I am having is going into access mode. I have an elderly mother and putting the vehicle into access mode really helps to get her into the car. When I select access mode, it shows a suspension fault. If I switch of the vehicle, sometimes several times, it will go into access mode. On occasion as it gets to its lowest, it then goes into a extended mode. Is it an issue with one or all of the valve blocks not evacuating the air? Many thanks.

    • @HazyJay
      @HazyJay  Год назад +1

      If it was an issue with the valve blocks you would expect a similar error when going from extended to normal height as well, so it's possible the vehicle thinks there is an obstacle. Sometimes this can be due to a poor alignment causing too much strain when going into access height. You may need a dealer to check the codes to determine the source.

      It's not uncommon to have the desiccant powder cause the valve blocks to leak or become stuck closed/open, but it would be unlikely for front and rear to fail at the same time. Watch the video "sagging over night" to try to narrow down the exact part that's failing.

      That's likely the compressor given the location of the sound (should sound like a electric pump running), unfortunately a fault after starting the car and the compressor running for a bit is likely the compressor failing to achieve adequate pressure fast enough, this means you likely need a new compressor.

    Question for you.
    My 2007 Range Rover hse sport has the suspension fault normal height only
    •the screen on the 4x4 info shows the sensors aren’t going up or down but they are a little uneven maybe like half an inch on the screen
    • when starting the car the compressor works for 15 seconds or so then stops
    •every now and then the air suspension will work with no issues
    • also when driving any little bump will make the car shake like crazy it’s like being hit by a wave
    What do you think I should do

    • @HazyJay
      @HazyJay  Год назад +1

      The real question is are the wheels at different heights in real life vs. just on the screen. If the screen shows different heights than what is in reality then the height sensors need calibration. If the heights match up but are bad (one side if lower), then you may have a problem with the valve block or spring. The compressor should run when the car starts to refill the reservoir. SUPER bumpy ride could be due to the springs being totally decompressed and on the rubber bump stops, is it bumpy when the springs are very low? If so it's because they are totally deflated.
      If you haven't replaced the compressor in 40K+ miles it's likely that, but watch this video to find the exact thing to look for: ruclips.net/video/dVowjVWG6kM/видео.html

    2009 RR sport,initial problem was sagging overnight which was solved by replacing the front valve block leaking internally after spending money on the wrong culprit which was both the front air stut,the car was ok for 5 months,then it started dropping below normal height both front &rear ,now it wont raise ,not even a single inch,my compressor is still fuctional as i swapped with my friends RR and raises the car with no issues,checked for leaks on both the resevoir and front valve block and there is none,what i have noticed is,on the front valve block,the air supply is there(wabbles the supply hose violently when disconnected),but the solenoids remain closed to both front air bags,i have checked this by disconnecting both hoses that feed the front air stuts from the front valve block,not even a single hiss of air(even with the front valve block dismatled & powered only,i expect it to pull the spool for the air strut valves),does the system need to pressrize the air reservoir fully first before sending the output signal to the valve blocks(incase the resevoir tank is leaking)how do i test the individual solenoids for the fron valve block numbered from 1 to 6 to ensure i am receiving the ourput signal from the EAS ECU,i am literally stuck ,the car is a sitting duck,can we engage.....

    • @HazyJay
      @HazyJay  3 года назад

      The vehicle will NOT pressurize the reservoir first, it will run both compressor and send any air from reservoir in order to speed up height changes at startup (sounds like yours is >2cm low, which would engage both), so I don't think it's a leaking reservoir. You can watch my video "sagging over night" to find a potential leak, but the big question is why it won't rise, because even with a small leak over night it should still rise. The middle solenoid just fills the reservoir, so in theory it isn't needed, but if it's stuck open it may trigger a "pressure rising too slowly" fault and shut off the air suspension system. As far as testing the solenoids, you would need a LR-specific reader, I'm not sure how to do that easily.

Should the next step be to replace this valve block? The car seems lower in the front that the rear. Or should I be looking at something else?

      Did you replace with an OEM compressor (like $700) or the aftermarket one ($150), unfortunately the aftermarket one doesn't always work as well. I don't think it's the valve blocks since this wouldn't cause your symptoms. You're supposed to have the suspension recalibrated after any suspension item is swapped (i never did this but you're "supposed" to), but it's primarily to ensure the suspension is level. If you swapped to the AMK compressor the ECU will need to be flashed or the symptoms you describe will happen.
