What is specific to the Discovery 4

Air suspension is fitted to most, but not all, Discovery 4 vehicles. Drivetrain and suspension: Permanent four-wheel drive with a two-speed transfer case (from 2014 some markets could have a single-speed unit instead), Terrain Response and all-round height-adjustable air suspension on most vehicles. Check which system your vehicle has before ordering, because a steel-sprung vehicle needs conventional suspension parts instead.

See Discovery 4 suspension for that side of the system.

Have this ready when you enquire

Discovery 4 air suspension questions

What is the most common air suspension problem on Land Rovers?

Air leaks are the root of most failures. A leak from an air spring, air line or valve block makes the compressor run much more than it should, until the compressor wears out or overheats. When a compressor fails, find and fix the leak as well, or the new compressor will go the same way.

Why does my Discovery or Range Rover drop overnight?

A corner that sinks while parked usually has a leak in its air spring, air line or the valve block. If the whole vehicle drops evenly, the valve block or a common line is more likely. Spraying soapy water on the springs and fittings with the vehicle raised can reveal where the leak is.
