Uneven vehicle height and heavy springing in Opel Combo: Door contact as a possible cause?

Excessive Bouncing

Uneven Ride Height

Hey guys, I noticed something strange with my Opel Combo (built in 2013, gasoline engine, with around 157398 km on it): The height of the car seems to be uneven and it bounces a lot. I thought this might have something to do with the faulty signal from the door contact. Has anyone had similar experiences? I'm a little worried, especially after my last visit to the garage, which wasn't great. Any input would be super helpful! Thanks in advance.

Hey, I had a similar symptom with my Opel Zafira (built in 2010). The problem in my case was a defective control unit. This has nothing to do with the door contact, but is much more serious. It cost me a lot of nerves, but after the repair in the workshop, my car ran like new again. So don't worry too much, just get it checked at a good garage, they'll sort it out. All the best!

Hey, thanks for your reply! I almost thought it was something more serious... By any chance do you remember how much it cost you at the garage? And have you had any other problems with the car since the repair? Hopefully the nightmare will soon be over for me too. Thanks again!

Hey, sure, I still remember it well. The story with the defective control unit cost me around €1000. But after that, the fuss was over! Since the visit to the mechanic, it's been running like clockwork, even the faulty signal from the door contact has been fixed. Your station wagon will survive, don't worry! Good luck, you can do it!

Thank you very much for your support! Your words reassure me a little. If that's the solution, then so be it. A repair for €1000 sounds steep, but if everything works again afterwards, then it's worth it. And good to hear that the problem with the door contact has also been solved. I hope my visit to the mechanic goes just as smoothly. Thanks again!
