| Air Suspension Compressor and Valve Blocks |
|
Hi all. On a hunch.......got a 2010 5.0 V8 suspension is working equal on all corners and no sagging down . lift and terrain response programs all well. However, now and then I get a suspension fault at start up but it does not limit access to the three different suspension levels but the lift is rather slow with a C1A18-64 "pressure increase too rapid when filling reservoir"........Strange thing is that when I start the engine and immediately press button for off road hight I do not get the fault BING. Here is the question: Has anyone tried to temporarily take out the desiccant and run the compressor whilst spraying silicon or any other lubricant into the intake?

Hi all, update on suspension quirks. Took out AMK compressor and cleaned all contacts in/outlets also the desiccant. Looked white but a bit powdery. But the main thing was to take out and disassemble the center valve block in front of the compressor. 1200 sandpaper to the solenoid shaft, compressed air hose to clean and a lot of silicone spray later i reassembled the valve block. Suspension raises in half the time and no more fault codes. Easy job for 1 hour. I think now I would do it anyway every 20000km or so even without fault codes.
