FELENDO Air Suspension Solenoid Valve Block LR070246 for Land Rover Range Rover, Discovery, Velar & Defender

Description

Felendo air suspension solenoid valve block for Jaguar XJ (X350 and X358)

Product Name: LR070246 Air Suspension Solenoid Valve Block / Levelling Valve

Overview

The LR070246 is a critical air suspension solenoid valve block, also known as a levelling valve, designed for a wide range of modern Land Rover vehicles, including the Range Rover (L405), Range Rover Sport (L494), Discovery 5 (L462), Range Rover Velar (L560), New Defender (L663), and Discovery Sport (L550).

As the central hub of the Electronic Air Suspension (EAS) system, this component is responsible for distributing compressed air from the air compressor to the individual air struts or air springs. By precisely controlling the airflow based on commands from the vehicle’s ECU, it maintains the correct ride height, ensures a smooth and comfortable ride, and automatically levels the vehicle based on load and driving conditions.

The valve block typically contains six solenoid valves that are activated by the ECU. It also houses the air suspension pressure sensor; if this sensor fails, the compressor will not receive the signal to activate. This valve block is a direct replacement for the original equipment (OE) component and is available from various manufacturers, including the renowned aftermarket brand Arnott (VB-3622).

Common Failure Symptoms

Over time, the O-rings inside the valve block can dry rot and leak air. A faulty valve block can cause several issues:

• Vehicle Sagging: One or more corners of the vehicle sit noticeably lower.

• Noisy or Overworking Compressor: The compressor runs constantly or makes loud noises due to air leaks, which can lead to premature failure.

• Suspension Warning Lights: Error codes related to the air suspension system appear on the dashboard.

• Poor Ride Quality: The vehicle may feel unstable, bouncy, or harsh.

• “Locked” Ride Height: The vehicle remains stuck at a certain height.

Key Features & Benefits

• Direct OE Replacement: This solenoid valve block is designed to directly replace the original unit (LR070246 and its cross-references), ensuring a perfect fit and restoring factory performance.

• Restores Suspension Performance: Replacing a faulty valve block will eliminate sagging, stop noisy compressor operation, and restore proper ride height and comfort.

• High-Quality Construction: Manufactured using high-quality materials, such as durable upgraded O-rings and reliable electrical components, to withstand undercar heat and harsh road conditions.

• Complete Repair Solution: Replacing a faulty valve block is an essential part of any complete air suspension repair.

Technical Specifications

Important Installation Notes

• All air connections on the valve block are color-coded to prevent installation errors.

• Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper sealing and system function.

• After installation, the air suspension system may need to be recalibrated using diagnostic equipment.

• It is crucial to ensure the system is absolutely leak-proof after repair; any leak can compromise the function of components like the suspension compressor.

• When diagnosing suspension issues, swapping the air lines on the valve block can help determine if the problem is the valve block or an air spring.
