Felendo air suspension compressor Bentley Continental (GT/GTC/Flying Spur), Volkswagen Phaeton, and Audi A6/A7/A8 (C7/D4) .
Product Name: 3D0616005C Air Suspension Compressor
Overview
The 3D0616005C is a complete air suspension compressor assembly designed for a range of premium Volkswagen Group vehicles, including the Bentley Continental (GT/GTC/Flying Spur), Volkswagen Phaeton, and Audi A6/A7/A8 (C7/D4) .
As the &#8220;heart&#8221; of the electronic air suspension system, this unit is responsible for generating and supplying pressurized air to the entire system. It is a complete assembly that includes the compressor motor, solenoid valve block, mounting bracket, integrated air dryer, and electrical connectors for a fast, plug-and-play installation.
How the System Works
The valve block is a small but critical component that manages the distribution of pressurized air. For a 4-corner air suspension system, it contains 6 air connections: one for the compressor, four for the air springs/struts, and one for the pressure reservoir. The six solenoid valves inside are activated by the vehicle&#8217;s ECU.
A common misconception is that the air springs are always directly fed by the compressor. In most cases, the compressor first pressurizes the reservoir up to 15-16 bar; this stored air is then used for controlled pressure build-up, minimizing compressor run time and preventing overheating.
Common Failure Symptoms
Over time, the compressor or valve block can fail. Symptoms include:
<ul>
<li>
Vehicle Sagging: The vehicle is noticeably lower on one or more corners.
</li>
<li>
Noisy or Overworking Compressor: The compressor runs constantly, makes loud noises, or fails to turn on.
</li>
<li>
Suspension Warning Lights: Error codes related to the air suspension appear.
</li>
<li>
&#8220;Locked&#8221; Ride Height: The vehicle remains stuck at a certain height.
</li>
<li>
Compressor Not Running: The air suspension pressure sensor is located inside the valve block, not in the compressor. If this sensor fails, the compressor will not receive the signal to activate.
</li>
</ul>

Important Installation Notes
<ul>
<li>
Replace the Relay: When replacing the compressor, you must always replace the relay (if provided) after installation. Failure to do so will void the product&#8217;s warranty.
</li>
<li>
Check for Leaks: Before installing a new compressor, it is crucial to check the entire air suspension system for leaks. The most common cause of compressor failure is a leak in the air suspension system, most likely in one of the air springs.
</li>
<li>
Professional Installation: Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper sealing and system function.
</li>
<li>
System Recalibration: After installation, the air suspension system may need to be recalibrated using diagnostic equipment.
</li>
</ul>
