2003 XJR (X350) Air Suspension

[Flightengineer]

Hi to all. Is there any common problems with the air suspension as I think mine has no air left in it as the ride seems to be hard and very noisy with road noise.

If anyone can advise me would be a great help. Thanks in advance, Stewart

Hi,

Most common sources of failure seem to be failed struts or suspension pump.  I had 3 struts replaced on my XJR when I lived in Abu Dhabi.  The heat and sand there did not seem to agree with the struts.  Two were done under warranty mind you.

Stewart, if you had no air in the system the car would be sitting extremely low. A common failure is the compressor for which there are rebuild kits. Before you buy anything I would suggest you have the codes read to see if it points to anything specific.
