Problems with the height sensor in the 2019 Toyota Highlander: experiences and solutions wanted

Hi, I have a 2017 Toyota 4Runner and had a similar problem. I'm not a car mechanic, but I do know a bit about cars. I took my car to the garage and explained to them what was wrong. In my case, it was the control unit. It cost about 1000 euros to replace it. Your symptoms sound pretty similar. Maybe you can tell us a few more details about the condition of your vehicle and then we can help you better. Best regards!

Hi, thanks for the tip! My Highlander now has 128648 km on it, the last service was recently. I've noticed that the problems tend to occur when the car has been running for a while or when it's quite warm outside. I hope this helps a bit. In any case, I will also consider the control unit. A thousand euros would be a bit steep, but if it helps, it's worth it. Thanks again for the advice!

Hey, you're welcome! Your further details will certainly be helpful. My 4Runner had similar symptoms, especially when it ran hot. If it really is the ECU, yes, the price is steep, but less hassle than constant inconvenience, right? Another possibility could be the suspension or dampers - they can also have strange effects if they're not working properly. You should have it checked. Good luck with that, hope you get it sorted soon!

Hi, really valuable information, thank you very much! Yes, you're right, constant problems are much more stressful in the long run than spending a lot of money once. I think I will consider these options and also have the suspension and dampers checked. When the time comes and I know what's going on, I'll keep you posted. Thanks again for the help and advice!
