Mokka EV's Bouncy Ride? Height Sensor May Be The Culprit

Hey there! I actually dealt with a similar issue with my 2020 Vauxhall Corsa-e last month. The bouncing and uneven stance symptoms were pretty much identical to what you're describing. In my case, it turned out to be a faulty connection between the height sensor and its cable. The sensor itself was fine, but the cable had gotten corroded and wasn't sending proper signals to the suspension control unit. My garage had to clean the connection points and replace a section of the cable harness. It wasn't a major repair job, took about 2 hours to diagnose and fix. The technician showed me how the corroded cable was causing inconsistent readings, which made the car's system adjust the suspension incorrectly. For peace of mind, I'd recommend getting it checked soon. While it's not an immediate safety risk, leaving it unchecked could lead to uneven tire wear and suspension stress over time. I'd suggest finding a garage that specializes in EVs, particularly Vauxhall electric models. Hope this helps with your decision!

Thanks for sharing your experience! That's exactly what I needed to hear, sounds spot on with what I'm experiencing. Do you remember roughly how much they charged you for the repair? Also, has everything been running smoothly since the fix, or have you noticed any other issues pop up? I'm trying to budget for this and want to make sure I'm prepared for any potential follow-ups.

Hey again! Yeah, I'm happy to fill you in on the details. After getting my Corsa-e fixed, it's been running like a dream, no more bouncing or uneven stance issues at all. The total bill came to 155.00 € for fixing that faulty cable connection on the height sensor. Money well spent, if you ask me! The functionality limitation of the height sensor is completely sorted now. It's amazing what a proper cable connection can do, the car feels totally different, in a good way! Been driving it for several weeks since the repair, and everything's working exactly as it should. No follow-up issues at all. Just a heads up, prices might vary a bit depending on your location and garage, but at least this gives you a ballpark figure to work with. Trust me, it's worth getting it sorted properly rather than letting it drag on. The peace of mind alone is worth it! Let me know if you need any other details about the repair. Always happy to help a fellow EV owner!

Hey, just wanted to update you on what happened! I took your advice and got my Mokka checked out yesterday. You were absolutely right about the cable connection issue. Found a great EV specialist garage about 20 minutes from my place, and they sorted it right away. Bill came to 170 €, bit more than what you paid, but still reasonable. The mechanic was super helpful, showed me exactly what was wrong, and fixed it while I waited. Turns out the cable had gotten pretty corroded due to some water getting in there. Just drove home from work, and what a difference! No more bouncing around like a kangaroo, and the car's sitting perfectly level again. It's like driving a completely different car now. Really appreciate you sharing your experience, saved me a lot of worry and helped me get this sorted quickly. Thanks again for the solid advice! Sometimes it just takes someone who's been through the same thing to point you in the right direction.
