Air suspension fault light came on in my 2004 jag xj8. a day later vehicle to low light came on. watched the suspension and it continued to work with this warning lights on. a week later the right shock broke and i had it relaced. Am I supposed to see my suspension in the front go up each time I start the vehicle and turn it off? It has been at one level since the shocks were replaced and it doesn't rise up or down. Are the wrong shocks on my vehicle, since I don't hear or see it rise and lower its self?

your car i think will be the xj350 all alloy car with air suspension. the normal cause of this problem is one of the level sensors on the front and/or rear or the little straps that retain the link rods for the sensor atached to the suspension arm broken off

Its inside the fuse/relay box under the bonnet and it is relay R1.

call the dealer and have them get it towed that way if something happens they are responsible.

jag dealer time.
its a JAG !

u can get code from most auto stores they offer free scanning but before bringing in check fuse -and power connection at compressor for power if compressor checks out fine look at the air lines to bags for breakage or disconnection -same goes for the bags

Problems with the air suspension seem to be less frequent with the Sport than in previous Range Rover models, but they still do occur. One owner reports "Whenever my RRS is lowered to "access" level a suspension system fault message apprears.". Another reports " Had the RRS back less than 2 hours and another "suspension fault." Also kept receiving messages that the vehicle is raising slowly and vehicle will raise when system cools. Couldn't even drive because it wouldn't raise out of access mode. Anyway, back to the dealer. Picked the RRS up again today-dealer said the EAS compressor was faulty and replaced it. So far everything is ok." Overall, most of the problems seem to be related to bad suspension height sensors or bad compressors. Angus Wade of the Czech Republic had his suspension light come on when in Germany; it started yellow and then red, then disappeared when he stopped and restarted the engine -- and has not happened since. His dealer said they have seen this a bit.

Weak Compressor: An official Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) LS-204-004 addresses "ELECTRONIC AIR SUSPENSION (EAS) WARNING MESSAGE AND LAMP ILLUMINATION". This deals with the warning message "Suspension Fault - Normal Height Only" message appearing with the Air Suspension Warning Lamp on. Computer diagnosis shows pressure increasing too slowly or unable to pressurize, with no air leaks. The usual problem is the compressor exhaust valve sticking, causing an internal air leak when the compressor is active. The bulletin recommends renewing the air compressor (RQG500090 is the latest specification air compressor with a stronger exhaust valve return spring)and installing and updating the air suspension control module software using WDS disc 13 or later.

Suspension Fault Message (random): One owner reported getting random suspension fault messages on his brand new RR Sport purchased in June 2006, well after the fix was in for the weak compressor. His suspension Fault message and Suspension Warning Light (Amber) came on after 5 days of ownership. He stopped and restarted the car, which caused the light and message to disappear, but they came on again after 5 minutes. Later the same day, the warnings disappeared again.

I have heard that on 2006 models, EAS fault messages can be caused by an internal leak in the Air Suspension compressor exhaust valve. The fix is said to be replacing the compressor updating the software.

Hope helps.
