Adam Air Suspension Failure

Hey, I've got a 2017 Vauxhall Adam with a gasoline engine. It's done about 106000 km. The air suspension has totally failed. It won't lift, and it's leaning to one side. The diagnostics show an error, and there's a message on the speedometer. The low beams are misaligned, and there's a warning light. I think it might be a bad cable or plug on the air suspension compressor. Anyone else had this?

Sounds familiar. Check the compressor connections first. Air leaks can cause similar issues. The suspension pump itself could be faulty. Have you worked on suspension systems before?

Thanks! Any more details on which specific connections to the compressor are most likely to fail or corrode? Just trying to get as much info as I can before I take it in.

Mine had a corroded connector at the pump. With those symptoms, and without specialist tools, I'd recommend a good workshop for a proper check.

Thanks for the advice! Took it to a local shop, and you were right – it was a defective cable or plug connection. Cost 95€ to fix. Appreciate the help!
