Peugeot 1007 air suspension fault

Hi, I have a 2008 Peugeot 1007 diesel and recently the suspension has gone completely haywire. The car won't lift at all, and it's leaning heavily to one side. I'm getting an error message on the speedometer and the ride is incredibly bumpy. I've checked the error memory and it's showing a fault with the air suspension. I'm suspecting a problem with the air suspension bellows valve. Has anyone else experienced something similar? I've got 287061 km on the clock.

Sounds familiar! I had a similar issue with my 1007. Leaning, bumpy ride, the whole shebang. Was like driving a tractor. Have you checked for any hissing sounds, like an air leak? Could be a simple puncture in the air line, or worse, the air spring itself.

Thanks for the reply! I haven't heard any hissing, but it's hard to tell with the engine noise. When yours went, was it definitely the bellows valve, or something else in the air suspension system? Trying to get an idea of what I'm facing before I take it in.

For me, it turned out to be the bellows valve, as suspected. Best to get it checked out by a workshop though. I'm not saying it's definitely that, but the symptoms are pointing towards that direction. I ended up with a bill of 590€ for parts and labor.

Okay, thanks for the info! Sounds like I'm heading to the workshop then. At least I have an idea of what to expect. I appreciate you sharing your experience!
