  Q: How to Properly Install an Air Suspension Compressor on Buick Lucerne?

  A: Starting the replacement of the Air Suspension Compressor requires vehicle elevation with proper support. Before removing the Air Hose from the Air Suspension Compressor or intake Air Filter please clean the Air Hose connections to stop foreign matter from accessing the alc system. First disconnect the air dryer air tube and then remove the bracket's bolt and harness tie along with the tube from the Air Suspension Compressor bracket. Disconnect the Air Suspension Compressor connector while also taking out the intake Air Filter. Remove the vehicle's two nuts and bolt and Air Suspension Compressor assembly before sliding the Air Suspension Compressor connector from its connector anchor. Start by first disassembling the Air Suspension Compressor bracket by both removing its heat shield and its two securing bolts. Finish by unbolting the three attachments holding the Air Suspension Compressor assembly to its bracket position. Separate the air dryer from the Air Suspension Compressor while removing air hoses from two different compressor openings and finally remove the two screws and two brackets from the compressor assembly. Begin installation by attaching the two brackets onto the Air Suspension Compressor with the two screws tightened to 7 nm (62 inch lbs.). The Air Hose needs to connect to the Air Suspension Compressor at two points followed by mounting the air dryer onto the compressor. Secure the Air Suspension Compressor assembly to the bracket using three bolts that must be tightened to 3 nm (26 inch lbs.). The heat shield should go onto the Air Suspension Compressor bracket with two bolts in place while keeping the third bolt free for future connection between the air tube. Mount the Air Suspension Compressor assembly onto the vehicle by first connecting its connector to the connector anchor and then tightening the bolt to 9 nm (80 inch lbs.) and the nuts to 9 nm (80 inch lbs.). The harness connector must attach to the Air Suspension Compressor connector while you replace the intake Air Filter and connect the air tube to the air dryer. Use the bolt to connect the air tube to the Air Suspension Compressor bracket before tightening the bolts to 4 nm (35 inch lbs.). After starting the engine wait roughly 45 seconds for the alc system to run the arc which adds residual pressure to the air adjustable shock absorbers before lowering the vehicle.

  Q: How to replace the Air Suspension Compressor on Buick LeSabre?

  A: The first step to replace an Air Suspension Compressor includes vehicle elevation and right rear wheel removal together with right rear wheelhouse extension removal. Soak and wipe down all Air Hose components to avoid contamination before you detach either the intake Air Filter connection or the Air Suspension Compressor. Separate the air dryer air tube before removing the bolt and harness tie securing it to its Air Suspension Compressor bracket position. After disconnecting the vehicle harness connector from the Air Suspension Compressor connector the technician needs to remove two nuts, the Air Suspension Compressor assembly and the bolt from the vehicle. Start by sliding the Air Suspension Compressor connector off its connector anchor position but keep two bolts holding the heat shield to the Air Suspension Compressor bracket while you detach these three bolts which fasten the Air Suspension Compressor assembly to its bracket. The air dryer needs to be removed from the compressor and air hoses need to be detached from two connections on the compressor. After this happens two screws and two brackets can be removed from the compressor. Secure the two brackets onto the Air Suspension Compressor with two screws that should reach 7 nm of torque (62 inch lbs). The installation requires an Air Hose to connect to two points on the Air Suspension Compressor before installing the air dryer onto the compressor. Install your Air Suspension Compressor assembly onto the bracket using three bolts but leave the third heat shield bolt until after you complete your air tube installation. Set all three bolts to 3 nm torque while omitting inch lbs. Measurement units. Secure the Air Suspension Compressor bracket's heat shield using two 4 nm (35 inch lbs.) bolt torques before connecting the Air Suspension Compressor connector to its anchor point. After mounting the Air Suspension Compressor assembly to the vehicle's body with two nuts and a bolt apply force of 9 nm (80 inch lbs.) to both fasteners and bolt. Connect the Air Suspension Compressor harness to its connector then add the intake Air Filter and link the air tube to the air dryer. Finish by securing the air tube with harness tie at the Air Suspension Compressor bracket using a 4 nm (35 inch lbs.) bolt torque value. To finish the operation replace both right rear components including wheelhouse extension and wheel. A complete waiting period of 45 seconds after ignition activation leads to residual pressure filling within air adjustable shock absorbers before you should lower the vehicle.

  Q: How to replace the Air Suspension Compressor on Buick Rendezvous?

  A: The first step to replacing an Air Suspension Compressor requires lifting and supporting the entire vehicle. Gather the Air Suspension Compressor filter from its position beneath the underbody rail and take off the two air tubes from the inflator solenoid. First remove Air Suspension Compressor electrical connector and compressor brackets bolts then remove Air Suspension Compressor assembly from the vehicle. Begin by extracting the compressor wires from their connector points to the air dryer and Air Suspension Compressor bolts before finally removing the Air Suspension Compressor from its expanse along the Air Suspension Compressor bracket and bracket and bolts from the compressor motor. New installation requires inserting the bolts and bracket to the compressor before torquing the Air Suspension Compressor bolts to 6 n.m (53 lb in). Secure the Air Suspension Compressor to its bracket with Air Suspension Compressor bolts before tightening them to 6 n.m (53 lb in). Reinstall the air dryer before adding air tubes to the inflator solenoid and connecting the compressor wires into the electrical connector. The install process starts with placing the Air Suspension Compressor filter onto the underbody rail and then securing the Air Suspension Compressor bracket nuts using 10 n.m (89 lb in) torque while the Air Suspension Compressor bracket bolts receive the same 10 n.m (89 lb in) torque. The final step requires connecting the Air Suspension Compressor electrical connector followed by bracket and Air Suspension Compressor installation onto the underbody rail before lowering the vehicle.
