Arnott® VB-3622 - Rear Suspension Air Spring Solenoid Valve Block

I bought a pair of A-2726 in 2014. One failed earlier this year, and the other one just started leaking air. I contacted CARID customer service. The service department was very responsive. Later I was told it was normal wear and tear despite the so-called "limited lifetime warranty". I would give it 4 stars for the product if they set the expectation right.

My 03 escalade ext rear air shock compressor was loud and not running up to speed. Since it was still working, I had time to do a lot of research and found the Arnott P-3242 compressor was an ideal replacement. The kit came with a wire harness adapter for my vehicle round plug to new compressor square plug. It also came with a new compressor relay. Was easy to replace, very quiet, has built in overload protection, and has a limited lifetime warranty. CARiD had the lowest price for this well built compressor.

Had a small leak in the original airbag on my 05 Town Car and decided to replace it to avoid overtaxing the compressor. Bags came within 3 days, carefully wrapped with replacement o-rings. When installing the new o-rings they looked much thicker than what we took off. Could not reinsert the solenoid valve in to the new bag. We even removed the electrical and air lines, took the parts to the bench and still could not re-seat the solenoid. 3 guys tried and they were all really strong. We were pressing at least 100 pounds and we feared cracking the plastic. So on to Plan B. We reinstalled the original rings and everything seated with modest pressure, and no leaks. We believe the small o-rings, on the tip of the solenoids, were just too thick. Arnott-Folks --- please double check your specs. The small O-rings you shipped are just plain wrong. Try a real-life sample. They simply will not seat. Once everything got together it all worked. The great ride has been restored. The bags are top quality. O-rings - not so much.

The part arrived on time. One thing I noticed after replacing both front struts and driving is it is noisier than the Range Rover OEM air spring. The Arnott makes a little clunking sound at low speeds when I hit a small bump or pothole in the road. It also rides a little stiffer. It performs consistently with the OEM spring at normal highway speeds.

Very easy to install, took me an hour from tire off to tire back on. The air line from the compressor to driver side shock needs to be longer, very short and had to adjust the line so it was not stretched.

Saved a lot of money and the job wasn't as hard as I thought it would be.

As in my previous review, love these products. I will continue. Quiet, smooth, can't ask for more.

I have yet to receive any defective products. That's why i always and always will purchase these products. They're good, simple as that!

This is a perfect fit on this 2008 Lexus GX 470 and replace the original equipment with no problems at all. I definitely recommend this brand to replace the costly original parts.

This compressor works as good or better than the old that came on my expedition and is much quieter.
