    BMW Air Suspension Systems are a common feature in BMW vehicles that help provide a smoother ride. In the event of an air suspension pump failure, this video will walk you through diagnosing and repairing the pump.
    The Air Suspension Pump BMW is used to adjust the vehicle's clearance on highways and uneven terrain. This pump is fitted in the car's undercarriage.
    The Air Suspension Pump BMW is in charge of adjusting the clearance of the vehicle. The need for this pump arises when the car encounters uneven terrain or sudden elevation changes. This pump is fitted in the car's undercarriage, and it has to be serviced every 20,000 miles.
    The air suspension pump is one of the most important components of your car's suspension, and it is typically located in the center rear under the car. It pumps air into your car's bags to keep it level and comfortable on all road surfaces. This video will teach you how to diagnose an air suspension pump that isn't working properly and provide some tips for repairing it.

      Glade you like the videos. My Cummins has just turned to 590,000 miles and running good.

    Great video - but my F85 has all sorts of black rigid hose lines under the compressor. Is this an F85 X5M and not F15 thing? how did you get those 5 or so black lines out the way to drop the compressor?

    Thank you for great info Glen 😊
    I do have a question for you or anyone on here who might know…I’ve been doing research and can’t find and answer.
    I have a 2011 bmw 750 li. Never had ANY issues with suspension.
    Alternative gave out, took it to a shop to get replaced, and now the airbags are not going up.
    Mechanic says bmws are know to have either suspension failure or other possible engine failures after alternator switch. Does anyone know how true or false that is ?
    I was recommended to this mechanic by a family friend 😢

    I have a question so I disconnected the lever to simulate a load on the car and my pump only made a click sound but the more I did it the pump stopped making sounds. I believe I should just replace the car but i was just trying to see if you knew what else it could be

    My X5 went down overnight. Left it outside on driveway that has slight angle. It has been somewhat intermittent over the last 4 months. It wouldn't pump up at all this morning. Now I turned the car on and waited and it pumped up. The fact that it dropped overnight suggests the valve is leaking, no?

    Can you provide us with the Amazon Link for that Compressor ( Vendor, manufacturer or Amazon Store)… There are multiple vendors on Amazon, but seems to me that you have picked the Good one. Thank you!

      @@AC-gk8dx That is a sign the check valve in the pump is bad. It can be hard to find a leak. The airbags can leak also. It can be a process of elimination.

      There is just one compressor. You can find them on Amazon for around $300. BMW wants about $1600. I got the Amazon one. It works good but is a little bit louder.
