Range Rover Sport L320 Air Suspension Height Sensor

Air Suspension Height Sensor for the Range Rover Sport L320: a ride height sensor for one corner.

Individual air suspension parts for when the fault is diagnosed and the rest of the system is healthy. A compressor that runs constantly is usually a symptom of a leak rather than a fault of its own, so find the leak first. Height sensors and valve blocks read and route the air, and a fault in either looks like a failed spring. The Sport L320 sits on the Discovery 3 and 4 frame with the same air suspension, the same transfer box and the same diesel engines.

Fitting

Labour guide: about 1 hour. Land Rover changes specification mid production, often by VIN rather than by model year, so send the VIN or the registration with the order and we confirm the part against the build data before anything leaves. It takes two minutes and it is the difference between a part that fits and a return. We are an independent Land Rover specialist and parts supplier. We are not Land Rover or Jaguar Land Rover and are not appointed by them; the model names are their trademarks and are used here to describe fitment. Everything we sell is chosen for vehicles that actually get used: towed with, loaded, driven through water and parked in fields, rather than for the brochure.

Which version to buy

OE Supplier is made by the firm that supplies the factory, in its own box rather than a dealer box. Same part, same line, typically 30 to 40 per cent cheaper than the dealer. Genuine Boxed is in the manufacturer's own packaging with the manufacturer's number on it. Worth it for warranty work, lease returns or a car with full dealer history, and not otherwise. Premium Aftermarket is a well regarded aftermarket maker that is not the original supplier. Generally good, and we say where the differences are.
