  • In this episode you can see a simple mistake that can be made by anyone, especially when pressed by time and other people, but in the end the problem was solved , This it was a malfunction or a rather rare problem that you will never expected.
    The level sensor being new should not be defective but .. it happens sometimes not all things are perfect, on the car was mounted a secondhand sensor that will be replaced by a new one when it will be delivered, however the system works perfectly .

    I have a BMW 525D Xdrive F11 2012. every time I switch on the ignition the dynamic damping control failure pops up. Corner ability restricted. During driving the error pops up many times. I took off my wheels. unscrew the screw holding the levele sensor. Lubricate with WD40 rust remover on all moving parts. I use a lot off WD40 silicone on the ball joints. Move the ball joints many time(over 100) till it is moving freely. I have driven over one week without any error. My two rear levels sensors was stuck with rust. The sensor can not move up and down. After lubricating them. The sensors work fine. No more error. After wards I use my autophix S910 ODBII tool to delete all error messages.

      Hi, well, the parts I have in the garage come from dismantled cars , they are not parts that I have replaced, everything I take down from the cars as a defective I throw them away, I only keep the modules because I still recover parts from them when I make repairs at the component level on boards !

    I had both air bags changed on the rear of my 2011 X5 BMW Xdrive35i, and after a couple of months a had no issues, until now, that the Level Suspension Malfunction error popped in the screen again, and I'm at a loss, because I don't know if could be a sensor at this point. The car still drives normal.

    2011 BMW 740li here. Left sode drops over 15 minutes. Replaced left air strut, no fix. Replaced compressor (solenoid too). My scan tool reads measuments from the ride height sensors, but does read 0 volts. Not sure what that means...but after replacing strut and compressor, no changes. Still drops after 10 minutes. Any thoughts?? Thank you!

      Salut . in mod normal va trebui facuta o reclalibrare a suspensiei... dar la generatiile vechi (E series) nu e o problema asa de mare si e posibil sa nu se intample nimic! dar daca masina ramane intr-o parte va trebui recalibrata.

      Hello, if the car was modified from air suspension to classic, then the car need to be coded accordingly, need to remove the option from FA and code the affected modules, if you don't know how to do it , no panic, you need to find someone who knows too code BMW in your area 😉 😀
