Ride height

Featured Replies

Hi

I’ve got a mk3 2020 Octavia vrs (petrol) and the n/s/r suspension is approximately 15mm lower than the o/s I’ve checked for broken spring but all is good, could the cause be the ride height sensor I don’t have any warning lights on the dash any help would be appreciated

Welcome to the forum.

Do I assume correctly this vehicle isn't fitted with DCC suspension?

I cannot see any way the ride height sensor can actually affect ride height - it senses the ride height for correct headlight alignment - not control ride height.

Most likely a tired spring - or possibly an incorrect replacement at some time.

Thank you for your reply this car does have DCC suspension and ive owned the car for 3 years its been fine so not sure why its dipped on the n/s/r

The springs on the rear don’t have any rust on them so don’t think they’re tired

As far as I am aware, DCC only has an effect on the shocks and not the suspension height.

Thank you for the reply I took the n/s wheel off today and the green arm of the sensor didn’t seem straight and I thought a bit seized so checked the google doctor which pointed me towards the sensor so I thought I would ask for advice off the BRISKODA experts.
