Front Air Suspension Shock For Land Rover Range Rover Sport L320 Facelift LR018172 LR019994

Q1: Is LR018172 the left or right front unit? Neither specifically — LR018172 fits BOTH Front Left and Front Right (per aftermarket fitment data: "Front Axle Left, Front Axle Right" / "Front axle both sides"). It is a both-sides front strut number. Always verify against the original unit by VIN.

Q2: Which vehicles does this fit? Range Rover Sport (L320, 2010–2013 — facelift) with air suspension + ADS (adaptive damping). Pre-facelift L320 (2005–2009) uses different numbers (e.g. RNB501580/581, non-ADS). Vehicles without ADS use the non-ADS version — do NOT fit this unit.

Q3: How do I tell the ADS version from the non-ADS one? The ADS strut has an electronic damping valve with an electrical connector on the damper. If the original unit has no connector, it is the non-electric (non-ADS) version.

Q4: Is this the complete strut assembly? Yes — air spring bellows, shock absorber and damping valve integrated into one unit, air fitting ready to connect. Direct replacement of the original strut.

Q5: Do I need to replace both front sides at the same time? Same-axle pair replacement is strongly recommended. An old unit on the other side causes uneven ride height and leveling behavior.

Q6: My car has EAS height adjustment — does this fit? Yes, this unit works with the EAS system. After installation, perform the suspension height calibration / system reset so the vehicle relearns the correct ride height.

Q7: What should I pay attention to during installation? Release air suspension pressure per the workshop manual; disconnect the electrical connector cleanly and protect connector + air fitting from dirt; mount and reconnect; start the car, run the ride-height reset / system initialization; check left/right height and leaks before a road test.

Q8: Warranty policy and shipping damage? 18-month warranty under normal use. For shipping damage, inspect within 48 hours of receipt and send photos/video — the seller arranges a replacement.

Q9: Service life and maintenance? Depends on road conditions and climate. Keep bellows clean and check for cracks during routine service; if the bellows leak, replace the complete unit.

Q10: Are aftermarket alternatives available? Yes — this is a well-covered number: Arnott AS-2761, BILSTEIN 44-232726, HELLA 8QA 358 254-041, KAMOKA 2070024/2070081, Dunlop/AIC 71140, TRUCKTEC 22.30.005, MAXGEAR 11-0803, JAPANPARTS MM-AS162 etc.; air-spring-only options (ESEN SKV 58SKV089, MAPCO 40990) are also available if only the bellows is needed.
