V90 Air Suspension Problem
Summary of the thread
A 2019 Volvo V90 with 52,000 km is experiencing air suspension issues, causing the car to lean to one side and not lift, accompanied by an error message and a bumpy ride. The problem is identified as a faulty bellows valve, a common failure point in the air suspension system. The suggested solution is to check for air leaks around the suspension airbags, particularly at the valve, and consider replacing the entire airbag if the valve is defective. The issue was resolved at a workshop with a repair cost of 590€.

Thanks for the quick reply! I haven't specifically listened for the compressor, but I'll check that out. Where exactly should I be looking for the air leak? Any specific points on the airbag I should focus on?

The valve on top of the airbag is a common failure point. Soapy water in a spray bottle will help you find it. But in my experience, if the valve is gone, replacing the entire airbag is the way to go. You'll probably need a workshop to do that.

Sounds like a bellows valve issue. Check for air leaks around the suspension airbags. If it's leaking, it's likely the valve is defective. Do you hear the compressor running more often than usual?
