Symptoms of fault:
Is your vehicles air suspension rising slowly, noisily, or perhaps failing to rise at all? EAS Amber light lit? Fault code C1A20, C1A1364, C50, or C1A20-64 showing? One or more of these errors: “Suspension error only normal height available” “Suspension fault; pressure not rising quick enough” Or “Pressure does not decrease when venting gallery”?
The fault:
The piston seals within your vehicles EAS air compressor are likely worn, filters saturated and the dryer end cap failing reducing output significantly.
The likely cause of the faults noted above and most common cause is a worn piston and glide ring within the air suspensions compressor unit. Coupled with saturation of the filters in the compressors drier unit. This results in reduction of compressor output and triggers vehicle faults as well as extending the time taken to lift the vehicle. The original design for the dryer end cap was poor and cracks can develop around the air line collets causing leaks and vehicle faults.
The solution:
Fit our improved design dryer end cap, piston seal and filter kit and restore your compressor to full health
Our complete kit includes all needed to restore your compressor to full health. Our kit includes a new improved design glide ring and piston ring, constructed to the finest of tolerances from improved materials to restore full output. Also included is two custom tools to allow easy replacement of these seals.
Full filter replacement kit to allow you to replace all filters and drying beads within the drier unit, the original filters saturate quickly and drastically effect output, our improved replacements will solve this problem.
This kit includes a new improved design dyer end cap, re-designed and engineered to not fail again. A simple straight swap for the old dryer end cap. Made from billet aluminium with a Viton seal to provide a perfect long lasting seal with the dryer canister. Improved metal collets and materials, designed to never fail again.
Our kit is the most comprehensive on the market, not only does it include everything listed above, but also includes end cap plugs so whilst the compressor is off the vehicle, you can test it for any air leaks. Also 2 x air line collets, the all-important relay (Land Rover recommend you change this when refurbishing/replacing the compressor) and a complete repair kit for the non-return valve including the screw itself, as this can often break during refurbishment.
