Vauxhall Vectra Air Suspension Failure

My 2001 Vauxhall Vectra with a gasoline engine has an air suspension issue. At 242765 km, it won't lift, leans to one side, gives me an error on the speedometer, and the ride is unbearably bumpy. The error memory also stores the issue. Anyone had similar pneumatic suspension problems?

A 2001 Vauxhall Vectra is experiencing air suspension failure, characterized by the vehicle not lifting, leaning to one side, and displaying an error on the speedometer. The problem is stored in the error memory, and the ride quality is severely affected. A similar issue was resolved by replacing a defective bellows valve, suggesting that a visit to a mechanic for a professional diagnosis and repair is necessary.

Sounds familiar. I had similar suspension failure on my Vectra. Check your bellows valve, probably faulty.

Thanks! Could you elaborate on the bellows valve issue? What symptoms did you observe? Any diagnostic error codes?

Yep, same leaning and error message. The bag valve was definitely defective and needed to be swapped out. Best go to a workshop.

Understood. Thanks for confirming my suspicions and sharing your experience! Seems a visit to the mechanic is unavoidable. Just got the quote: 590€. Ouch!
