Meta Mechanics, a trusted name in automotive repair and maintenance, is proud to have recently completed a complex Airmatic Shock repair on a Range Rover Velar in Dubai. Our expert team identified several key issues and provided solutions to restore the vehicle’s optimal performance. Here’s a detailed overview of the issues we found and the steps we took to resolve them:
Issues Identified During the Range Rover Velar Airmatic Shock Repair
- Leaking Airmatic Shock Absorbers:
- Problem: One of the primary issues we discovered was that the airmatic shock absorbers were leaking air. This typically leads to a loss of suspension performance, affecting the vehicle’s ride quality and height adjustment.
- Solution: We replaced the damaged shock absorbers with high-quality, OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) components. This restored the suspension’s ability to maintain consistent ride height and ensured smooth handling.
- Faulty Compressor:
- Problem: The air compressor, which is responsible for supplying air to the shock absorbers, was malfunctioning, causing irregular suspension behavior and potentially damaging the system further.
- Solution: Our technicians replaced the faulty compressor with a new one, ensuring that the entire air suspension system operates with the correct pressure and efficiency.
- Damaged Air Lines:
- Problem: During the inspection, we found that several air lines were cracked or damaged, leading to air loss and causing the vehicle’s suspension to be unstable.
- Solution: We replaced the damaged air lines with durable, high-quality hoses that are designed to withstand wear and tear. This step ensured that air pressure is maintained, contributing to the overall longevity of the suspension system.
- Corroded Suspension Components:
- Problem: The harsh climate of Dubai, with high temperatures and dust, had caused some suspension components to corrode, which affected the vehicle’s suspension system.
- Solution: We cleaned and treated the corroded parts with anti-corrosion solutions and, where necessary, replaced the severely damaged components to ensure that the suspension remains functional and resistant to future wear.
- Suspension Control Module (SCM) Error:
- Problem: The vehicle’s Suspension Control Module was displaying error codes, affecting the vehicle’s ability to adjust to the correct height and ride characteristics.
- Solution: After diagnosing the error, we performed a full reset of the SCM and reprogrammed it to ensure proper integration with the new parts. We also checked all sensor calibrations to avoid future issues.
