F01 Air Solenoid Valve Air Suspension Compressor Pump 37206789450 Compatible with BMW 7 F02 F04 F07 5(F11 F11N) F15 F16 GT G31 2014- Air Suspension Air Ride Pump Compressor Repair Kit

I replaced the air bags with Arnott springs and the chassis warning fault persisted. The car was riding too high not letting air out. I was quoted £1400 for a new compressor so I thought I'd give this a go for £21. Stripped the compressor and it was soaking inside. I dried the desicant balls and replaced this valve and so far so good it's riding perfectly with no faults! Extremely easy fit and great value for money. It's worth a punt for the price hopefully it saves you all some money.

My 520d had dropped the rear suspension during a short journey and was then bouncing and thumping on the bump stops. I had recently fitted new airbags so unlikely to be both failing at once. Cycling the ignition I could hear the compressor motor whirring away so that was working OK. I removed the assembly to find there was corrosion around the solenoid valve. Blowing into the small hole revealed air escaping, meaning the valve was stuck in the open position (an internal spring should cause the solenoid to stay closed with no voltage supply). This meant that the compressed air was just escaping though the permanently opened relief valve and not building pressure to lift the airbags. This part fitted as a direct replacement, no problems and suspension fully operational again for less than £30. Would recommend

Ok

cheap fix and easy

Part was a direct replacement, doesn't appear to have fixed my problem though but that's not the parts fault

Worked a treat, discharge valve not available from BMW, would need to buy a pump assembly at great cost. Car needs to be driven a short distance before suspension settled at correct height.

Seems to be as well made as the original and functions perfectly so far. For the money it represents 2 percent of the cost of a new compressor!

Bought as a punt since the description said it wasn't compatible with my vehicle, however it looked exactly the same so I thought it was worth a try. Fitted perfectly and saved me a £1500 bill from my local dealer who said I needed to replace the whole compressor. Fairly easy job for anyone mechanically minded and loads of videos online showing how to do it.

Ich habe dieses Ersatzteil für meinen F11 gekauft. Es hat super gepasst, wirkt wertig und verrichtet seinen Job.

Fungerar som den ska. Vart bara tvungen att plocka isär kompressorn för att kunna byta ut den defekta.

Werkt zo goed als het origineel

Sent it back, so can't say anything about it. Seems fine from a occular review.

Alles gut, danke
