V60 Air Suspension Failure

My 2020 Volvo V60 hybrid with 249685 km has air suspension issues. The car won't lift, leans to one side, and the ride is bumpy. I'm getting error messages and suspect a faulty air suspension bellows valve. Has anyone else experienced this?

Sounds familiar! I had a similar issue with my V60. Is it making a hissing sound? Mine was, and it turned out to be a leak in the air suspension system. Check around the airbags and lines for splits or bad connections. Where is the car leaning?

Thanks! No hissing sound that I can hear, but I'll inspect the airbags and lines. It's leaning towards the left rear, suggesting that valve. How did you pinpoint your leak, and was it a bellows valve issue?

Mine was the front right, a faulty valve on the air strut. I couldn't pinpoint it myself without tools and took it to a shop. They used soapy water to find the leak. With yours leaning and no hissing, I'd suspect a similar valve failure. It's probably best to get it looked at.

Appreciate the insight. Sounds like a workshop visit is next. The code reader pointed to the valve as well. I've been quoted 590€ for the repair, which seems reasonable. Thanks again!
