Insignia air suspension failure

My 2021 Vauxhall Insignia diesel has an air suspension failure at 214235 km. It won't lift, leans noticeably, and the error memory shows a suspension fault, displaying an error on the speedometer. The ride is very bumpy. Could this be a defective bellows valve?

I had a similar issue with my Insignia. Does it feel like the car is riding directly on the suspension stop? Mine felt rock hard.

Yes, it feels like it's riding directly on the suspension stop. Could you elaborate on which component failed in your case? Was it the air spring?

Yes, the issue was with the air spring itself and the integral valve. Apparently it's a common fault. Given the complexity, a professional workshop diagnosis is advisable to avoid further damage.

Thanks, that confirms the likely cause. I'll thoroughly inspect the air spring and valve assembly, then take it to a workshop to prevent further damage. Your input was invaluable.
