C2 Air Suspension Fault

Hi, I've got a 2003 Citroen C2, gasoline engine, with 184606 km on the clock. Recently, the car won't lift anymore, and it's leaning to one side. I'm getting an error message on the speedometer, and the ride is super bumpy. The error memory also has a stored fault. Could this be related to the pneumatic suspension?

Oh, that sounds rough! A leaning car and bumpy rides are no fun. I'm no expert, but the symptoms you're describing definitely point towards something wrong with your air suspension. Is the error message you're seeing specific to the suspension system? Does it say anything about a bellows valve?

The error message doesn't specify the bellows valve directly, but it does mention a general fault within the air suspension system. Is it possible for a faulty valve to cause all these issues at once?

Yeah, it's totally possible! A defective bellows valve could definitely be the culprit. If it's leaking or not functioning correctly, it can cause the system to lose pressure, leading to the leaning, the bumpy ride, and the error message. Honestly, with all those symptoms popping up together, you're probably best off taking it to a workshop. Messing with suspension stuff can be tricky!

Thanks for the advice! I took it to a shop, and you were right, it was the bellows valve. Cost me 590€ to get it fixed. Appreciate the help!
