Seat Formentor Air Suspension Problem

I'm having some trouble with the air suspension on my 2021 Seat Formentor Hybrid. The car won't lift anymore, it's leaning to one side, and I'm getting an error message on the speedometer plus a warning light. Also, the low beam seems to be shining in the wrong direction. The error memory suggests a problem with the air suspension compressor. Could this be a compressor failure, or is there something else I should check first?

Summary of the thread

The 2021 Seat Formentor Hybrid experienced issues with its air suspension, causing the car to lean to one side and display error messages. The problem was suspected to be related to the air suspension compressor. A similar case suggested checking the cable and plug connection to the compressor, which was found to be the issue. Cleaning the connection resolved the problem, allowing the car to lift properly and eliminating the warning messages.

Hey, I had a similar issue with my Formentor not too long ago. The air suspension went haywire, and the car was leaning to one side. Have you checked the cable and plug connection to the compressor? That was the culprit in my case.

Interesting! Where exactly is the cable and plug located? Is it easy to get to, or do I need to take half the car apart?

Yep, same symptoms. The error message and the wonky headlight aim were the giveaways for me. It's worth checking the connection before replacing the whole compressor. If cleaning the connection doesn't solve it, I'd recommend taking it to a workshop. They can properly diagnose it.

That's great to hear! I really appreciate you sharing your experience. I checked the cable and plug, gave it a clean, and it seems to have sorted out the problem. The car lifts again and no more warnings! Cost me 95€ for the cleaning spray. Thanks again for the help!
