Stilo Air Suspension Fault

Hi, I have a 2004 Fiat Stilo with a diesel engine and 121549 km on the clock. The car won't lift anymore and is leaning to one side. There's an error message on the speedometer and the ride is really bumpy. The error memory says something about the air suspension. Any ideas?

A 2004 Fiat Stilo with a diesel engine is experiencing issues with its air suspension, causing the car to lean to one side and display an error message. The problem is likely due to a faulty air suspension bellows valve, which controls airflow and affects the vehicle's ride height. The suggested solution is to have the valve checked and repaired at a workshop to prevent further suspension failure. The issue was confirmed and resolved at a cost of 590€.

Sounds like a faulty air suspension bellows valve, letting air out of the system. The bellows valve controls the airflow into the air struts which dictates the vehicle's ride height. I had a similar issue with my old Citroen C4. Is there any hissing sound coming from the suspension?

I haven't noticed any hissing. Is it a big job to fix?

Well, the hissing might be hard to hear, especially if it's a slow leak. With those symptoms, it's pretty likely the valve is the problem. I'd suggest taking it to a workshop to get it checked out properly. Could be dangerous if the suspension fails completely while driving.

Thanks for the advice. Took it to a shop, and you were right, it was the bellows valve. Cost me 590€ to get it fixed.
