Hyundai i20 suspension air bag valve issue

Hi, I have a 2008 Hyundai i20, diesel engine, with almost 170000km. Lately, the car won't lift anymore. It's leaning to one side, throws an error in the error memory, and I get a message on the speedometer. The ride is super bumpy. Could it be the suspension air bag valve?

That does sound like a suspension issue. I had similar symptoms on my old Citroen C4 some years back. The car was leaning, and the ride quality went downhill fast. Was there any noticeable hissing sound before this happened?

No, no hissing that I noticed. Just the error messages and the car getting lower and lower. Anything else it could be besides the valve?

Without a hissing sound, it's harder to pinpoint without a proper inspection. However, given the error messages and the leaning, the suspension air bag valve being defective is quite probable. I would suggest a workshop visit; it might be best to have it checked by a professional.

Thanks for the advice. I took it to the shop, and you were right – suspension air bag valve defective! Cost me 590€ to fix, but at least it's sorted.
