Seeking Advice on 2011 Lexus LFA Uneven Ride Height and Bouncing Issue, Possible Door Contact Signal Problem

Hey there! Sounds like we've had a similar type of issue. I've got a 2009 Lexus IS F. Speaking on my level of car expertise, I'd say I have a tad bit of experience, but I'm no mechanic. The problem on my ride was actually the cable/plug connection which was defective. I hauled it over to my trusty local workshop, and theyaged to identify and fix the issue for me. Cost me 155€, but it was well worth it to have my ride back to normal. Just to get a more exact picture on your issue, could you tell me more about your car's condition? Like, how's the overall maintenance been? Any significant repairs done recently? Cheers!

Hey there! Thank you for sharing your experience, it sure helps. The maintenance of my LFA has been regular thanks to my trusted mechanic; last one was done at 63464 KM. No major repairs recently, just the usual routine. I'll definitely check the cable/plug connection as you suggested, I hope that's the culprit. Look into the issue soon! Cheers!

Hey there! Glad to know your LFA undergoes regular maintenance, that's very important. Since no significant repairs have been carried out recently, it's a relief we can rule out the possibility of something going wrong due to the recent work done. Yes, please do check the cable/plug connection as I mentioned. Although your issue isn't exactly as I experienced, the symptoms do sound familiar. This could potentially be the root cause. When it comes to these high-performance cars, even a small fault can result in bizarre symptoms! Also, just a suggestion, but when you do visit your mechanic, you might want to consider having the suspension system thoroughly checked out. The uneven ride height and excessive bouncing could be due to worn out suspension components or a shock absorber problem. And do take his style too, sometimes it’s not just the equipment, could be a filled tank affecting the height. Hope this helps! I'm keen to hear how this turns out for you. Good luck!

Hey! Thanks for the detailed advice. Your diagnosis sounds pretty spot on, I didn't consider the suspension at first. A filled tank too, huh? Never thought of that, would ask my mechanic to consider all these factors. I'll get everything checked out soon and will surely update you on the outcome. Here's to hoping it's a minor and fixable issue! Take care!
