You have to determine which compressor you have, is it Hitachi or AMK ? Available dryer fits only the Hitachi unit.

Maybe keep this all in one thread as you posted here. Going to get confusing. Especially since you have new issues that may or may not be related.

They are first cheap, I bought a whole box when I did my compressor.





Link to a basic video on replacing the stuff inside.

You can buy the actual material on eBay. But the kits are nice. The plastic end caps tend to break on the original Hitachi units. The kit comes with a metal cap and all new bits to rebuild the drier. Other kits include most additional parts for a full rebuild.

Also attached it an AMK info sheet, but it helps ID the compressor make you have installed.

But again, before you do anything get the codes. You could find the compressor is on its way out and either needs a total rebuild or replacement. A new unit will come with a nice new dryer.
so I replaced the desiccant yesterday, and it drove away perfectly fine. Now it is 15° outside, and the car is not liking it. It has been with the yellow suspension light all morning, even turning red intermittently every time I drive 25 mph or higher. Could this be related to the wheel speed sensor I just changed? Or are there other filters I should changed?

the problem went away for the longest time, and then I got t-boned and the compressor failed. I replaced it. Can you take a look ta this post tho? https://landroverforums.com/forum/lr...ng-pump-93976/
