Detailed Description
The Arnott RH-5285 is a front ride height sensor for 2007-2015 Mini Cooper models equipped with air suspension height monitoring. It sends chassis-height information to the ECU, which then commands the compressor and air struts to raise or lower the vehicle as needed. This helps maintain proper ride height control and suspension response. If you are replacing a worn Mini Cooper front ride height sensor, RH-5285 provides a direct-fit service part for the listed application.
This part cross-references BMW OE numbers 37146772847 and 37146778842 for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Incorrect vehicle ride height readings
- Air suspension compressor cycling caused by faulty sensor input

Installation Notes and Tips
Verify connector style, terminal layout, and front mounting location before installation. Inspect the sensor linkage, wiring, and mounting points for corrosion or damage, especially on Mini Cooper vehicles exposed to road salt or moisture. After installation, clear any suspension fault codes and confirm the system levels correctly.
