Know the Common Problems in an Air Suspension

The air suspension systems use tough rubber and plastic bags which are inflated to a certain pressure and height. These provide better driving comfort and can also get subjected to problems due to leaks in the air springs, bad air compressor or excess moisture. In order to avoid any such issues, see the following slides that describe the common problems in an air suspension and their fix.

  1. Know the Common Problems in an Air Suspension

  2. The air suspension systems mainly replace a car's traditional coil springs with air springs, which are tough rubber and plastic bags inflated to a certain pressure and height. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  3. Common air suspension problems may seem small, but they’re actually one of the leading causes of the suspension failure. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  4. Fortunately, there are ways to avoid these issue and the best way is to keep an eye out for the warning signs discussed below so you know when it’s time to repair the system. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  5. Air spring leaks

  6. One of the most common air suspension problems is a leaking air spring which is due to the deterioration of the rubber components, creating holes and tears and causing an air leak. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  7. Due to bad air suspension, you may experience a bumpier ride because a damaged air spring can’t absorb the shock from bumps in the road. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  8. The air compressor keeps constantly running as its work is to keep the bags and springs properly inflated and when there’s a leak, the compressor does not stop. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  9. Also. if there’s a leak in the air springs, the height of the vehicle will drop or it will sag on the side where the damaged air spring is. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  10. Faulty Air Compressor

  11. A faulty compressor is also a common air suspension problem as the compressor mainly works to keep the air springs inflated. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  12. Oftentimes, a compressor malfunction because it’s overworked, meaning that it runs more often than usual which wears it out and causes the part to fail faster. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  13. One way to determine a faulty air compressor is to check the vehicle height and if it’s riding lower than usual, the compressor may not be working properly. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  14. Hearing noises coming from the part also means compressor issues and any clinking, grinding, or whining indicates a problem with the motor or fan. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  15. Excessive Moisture in the System

  16. The compressed air within an air suspension system contains moisture that can accumulate and lead to severe damage. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  17. This issue is caused by a malfunctioning air dryer assembly, a part designed to remove moisture from the compressed air. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  18. Excessive moisture in the compressed air within the suspension system could result in rust and corrosion. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  19. This problem can also affect leveling capabilities, the compressor, and overall suspension performance of your car. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  20. How to Fix Air Suspension Issues

  21. The quickest and easiest way to fix these common air suspension problems is to have the system repaired or parts replaced as soon as you notice any of the issues above. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.

  22. By remaining alert and making quick replacements, you will be able to prevent complete failure of the suspension system. The air condition system of the car is not just the switch and the air vents, a number of other components work simultaneously to provide the cool and refreshing air.
