What is an air suspension fault on a Land Rover Discovery 4?

Instead of using traditional coiled steel springs to provide vehicle suspension, air suspension refers to suspension powered by an air pump or compressor. This suspension then allows for easier handling while driving and even allows the driver to increase or decrease ride height for a smoother journey.

The entire air suspension system is made up of numerous components including air bags, ride height sensors, air struts, air springs, air suspension compressors, a storage tank, air suspension solenoid valve blocks, and an electronic control unit (ECU).

Faults can therefore occur in many different areas of the system, but if you have a flashing air suspension warning light, it’s likely that there’s an issue with the air suspension bags.

Common suspension faults

Some of the most common Land Rover Discovery 4 air suspension faults include air bag faults, height sensor faults, solenoid valve block faults, and ECU faults. Each one has a different cause, for example, air bag faults are often brought on by deteriorated and leaking bags, whereas ECU faults typically stem from loose wiring.

Common causes of air suspension faults

Problems with air suspension in your Land Rover Discovery 4 are often due to a leak or inflation issue. However, issues can also arise if any of the aforementioned parts (such as the air compressor, valve block, or ride height sensor) become faulty, so it can be difficult to determine the source of the issue.

What are the signs of Land Rover Discovery 4 air suspension fault?

There are many different symptoms of Land Rover Discovery 4 air suspension faults that should bear in mind when driving your vehicle. This includes the obvious signs such as suspension fault error codes and the vehicle sagging on one side, but can also include the air suspension operating slower or with more noise than usual.
