Hey, thanks for sharing. Yup, no mods on my UX, she's stock. Tbh, I was hoping it's not the compressor cuz the cost sounds hefty, but your experience is certainly insightful. I was planning a road trip with the lads at 110K. Let's see, gotta get this checked out ASAP now. Cheers!

Hey again! Yeah, I totally get it - nobody loves these unexpected expenses. To be fair, I also thought the repair cost was a bit of a stinger but it truly sorted the issue for good, which for me was worth it. Remember, I'm no mechanic but, from my experience, if the ride is uneven and bouncing like a bucking bronco, I'd bet on it being a suspension issue. Still, make sure to get it checked professionally, it might turn out to be something less pricey! I know you're eager for that road trip, fingers crossed it won't delay your plans too much. At the end of the day, it's more important you're safe and your UX Hybrid is riding smooth. So, don't put it off for too long. All the best with getting it sorted!

Yeah, safety first, you're right. Alright, off to the workshop with her then! Hope they can fix her up quick enough so the boys and I won't have to reschedule the trip. Fingers crossed it doesn't create a big hole in my wallet. Truly appreciate your advice and sharing your experience, it's valued. Meanwhile, let me get this sorted. Cheers!

Hey there, I totally feel your pain. Had the same issue with my 2020 Lexus NX a while back. I am by no means a car expert, maybe got some experience under my belt. Took mine to a trusted local workshop. They did a thorough check and it turned out to be a defective air compressor. Set me back about 890 Euro to get it fixed but it was well worth it, the ride's been smooth like butter ever since. Just out of curiosity, have you changed any modifications on your UX Hybrid lately? It might help me give you more detailed advice.
