Skoda Karoq Suspension Warning Light

I am experiencing a problem with my 2017 Skoda Karoq with a Gasoline engine. The mileage is 178903 km. A warning light is showing in the speedometer, and the low beam shines too far down or up. Additionally, the vehicle appears to be at an uneven height, with the front axle lower than the rear. The ride also feels quite bumpy. An error is stored in the error memory regarding height control being restricted. Could this be related to a defective control rod on the sensor?

That sounds familiar. I drive a Karoq as well, and I had a similar suspension issue with the height adjustment last year. The low beam being misaligned is a classic symptom. Have you checked the leveling sensor on your automotive suspension? It could be a faulty leveling sensor. When a leveling sensor malfunctions, it affects the entire leveling system of the vehicle, including the headlights. The uneven height is definitely another sign.

Thank you for your reply. Can you elaborate on what you mean by 'leveling sensor'? Where exactly is it located, and how can I check it?

The leveling sensor is part of the automotive suspension's height adjustment system. It monitors the vehicle's height and sends signals to adjust the headlights and suspension accordingly. It's usually located near the suspension components. Honestly, I didn't check it myself. I took it to a workshop as soon as I noticed the symptoms. They diagnosed it quickly. I advise you to consult a professional.

Thank you for your advice. I took my Skoda Karoq to the workshop, and it turned out that the control rod on the leveling sensor was indeed defective. The repair cost me 110€, and now the automotive suspension works as it should.
