Know the Common Problems in an Air Suspension

Description:

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 s that describe the common problems in an air suspension and their fix. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Title: Know the Common Problems in an Air Suspension


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 theyre 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
its 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 cant
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 theres 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 theres 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 its
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 its 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.
