Valve block and solenoids

The manifold of electric valves that decides which corner gets air and which corner lets it out.

Also called AIRMATIC valve block, solenoid block.

How you know it is this

  • One corner that will not rise while the others do
  • The car levelling itself unevenly, or leaning at rest
  • A leak that moves from corner to corner

Worth knowing before you buy

  • A valve block leak behaves exactly like a leaking strut, and it is far cheaper. Worth eliminating before buying struts.
  • The O-rings inside are a common and inexpensive repair on some blocks.
  • The block is a common point of water ingress where it is mounted low.

What we need to quote it. The chassis number settles the generation, the body and usually the engine in seventeen characters — it is on your mulkiya. A photograph of the old part helps where there is more than one version.
