I bought my 2014 LR4 a couple months ago and brought it to an independent Land Rover shop to address random suspension faults.

While it was there, they replaced the air suspension compressor. The one removed was apparently a cheap aftermarket (Chinese knockoff) unit. The first “new” compressor they installed malfunctioned, so they dug deeper and found water inside one of the valve blocks. Because of that, they replaced all three valve blocks.

After replacing the valve blocks, they installed a second compressor and felt confident it was fixed. I picked the vehicle up and drove it home with no issues. The next day, while idling in a parking lot, I noticed the suspension adjusting itself and a dash message came up like “Adjust ride height if clear of obstacles.” After that, the behavior got worse and eventually turned into faults.

Luckily I recently picked up a GAP IIDTool (IID4), so I scanned it. Now I’m repeatedly getting the dash warnings and the same related faults in the tool (screenshots below).

I messaged the mechanic with the fault info. He said to bring it back and they’ll replace the compressor again under warranty, assuming the compressor itself is bad. The part that has me confused is the water they found in the system. If moisture contamination is still present somewhere (lines, dryer, reservoir, etc), it seems like that could keep causing problems and possibly take out compressors or valve components again.

One other detail: the compressor firmware shown in the GAP tool indicates Hitachi. I sent that screenshot to the mechanic and he replied:

“Yeah I know, the system will not allow for the AMK set up… Land Rover removed the AMK programming…”
At this point I’m looking for ideas on what else to check or investigate before I can get it back to the shop (it’s about an hour away, so I’ll likely be taking it in next week).

Dash messages and GAP tool results below:


1. Reselect Suspension Height If Clear of Obstacle
2. Suspension Fault ... etc

I get it home hook up the tool and get the following:

Quick update with the new faults I’m seeing on the GAP tool, in case they help narrow this down.
At 96,946 miles (engine idling around 616 to 626 RPM, charging at 14.2V), I pulled the following additional codes:
FCDIM (Front Control)
B1D21-13: Remote control switch, general electrical failure, circuit open (logged 07-02-2026 12:51:47)
RLM (Suspension module)
U0102-00: Lost communication with transfer case control module (logged 07-02-2026 12:49:06)
IPC (Instrument Pack)

Gap IID tool can update the firmware to AMK, that should be the first thing. Second thing is your mechanic sounds a bit shady.

Because I am a complete novice. Would you mind telling me the appropriate procedure for doing this?

I don't remember exactly where, but I remember stumbling across it when I was poking around the app. I still have a Hitachi compressor so never had to run the procedure.

Btw earlier you mentioned the mechanic seemed shady. What was it that I mentioned that gave you that impression? Just curious if there is something I am missing. The shop is fairly new, and they do nothing but land rover, infact their shop name is based on land rover. They have a bunch of 5 star rating etc, but only started about a year ago. They have been very communicative.


I am not offended or anything by your comment to be clear, I am just a bit naive to all of this stuff and just trying to understand incase I am blind and missing something.

Yeah, I've been bit by ****** "Land Rover" independents which includes a "Land Rover certified mechanic". Its all bs, they have some high school kids in there doing the work. Out front they park land rovers, land rover this, land rover that inside. Lots of shams out there.

Telling you that you can't update firmware to AMK is wrong. It's also suspect that you would have had water in your air lines. To me it sounds like they were trying the parts cannon approach with a veneer of supposed expertise
