Erratic driving behavior and warning light in the speedometer of the 2016 diesel Opel Movano

Excessive Bouncing

Bouncing excessively over bumps

Warning light in the speedometer of the vehicle

Hey guys, I have a problem with my 2016 diesel Opel Movano, which already has a good 188342 km on the clock. The old bone is literally dancing over the cobblestones and bounces like a rubber ball even on small bumps. What's more, a warning light has appeared in the speedometer. Is it possible that there is a defect in the suspension damper adjustment? Would be great if I could hear your experiences on this, especially how it went with your mechanic, I had very bad experiences with my last one. Cheers, thanks in advance!

Hey, so I recently had a similar problem with my 2013 diesel Opel Vivaro. It turned out that my ECU was faulty, which caused some of the same symptoms you describe. It was a pretty serious issue because the ECU controls many different aspects of the vehicle. My mechanic had to completely replace and reprogram it. And although it was uncomfortable, it's now like new again. I hope this helps you a bit and you don't have to go through the same thing I did! Good luck, buddy!

Hey, thanks for the quick reply! Can you be a bit more specific? I mean, can you remember how much the whole thing cost you? And has anything else come up since replacing the control unit that you had to consider? It would be great if you could help me. Thanks in advance!

Hey, sure, I can. So, to satisfy your interest, it cost me a tidy €1000 to repair the control unit. It was a tough job, but my car has been in top shape ever since. And you know what? Since the visit to the mechanic, the problem with the fault in the suspension damper adjustment has also been fixed. So really, no other problems since the replacement. I hope this helps you and you can get away with it cheaper. Good luck, dude!

Hey, thanks for the info! That really helps me. I wouldn't have thought that the control unit would be so expensive, but if it helps to get the car back on track, then it seems to be worth the investment. Thanks again for your help and wish you all the best! Cheers, take care!
