Dancing Active Suspension and a Ping on 91 Q45a

[kirbyQ45]

Problems:1) The Active Suspension will literally dance. This problem seems to go away one time you start the car and return again later. When started the car will raise its self, then it seems each hydraulic shock will oscilate up and down. It creates a bad feeling on the road so i am avoiding driving it until i can fix this. The ACTSUS light is on and reamins on even when it does not show the problem. I have narrowed it down to the rear struts only. I also just replaced a couple of vacuum connectors coming from top of strut.

2) A small ping(knock) coming from the passenger side of the engine that starts up around 2800 rpm. It will ping louder as rpm goes up and then dissapear when the rpms fall below 2800. It does come on briefly when the car is shifting its self. It causes no noticable hesitation and i would guess its just a noisy lifter or valve.

wanted to run these two by the pro's just to see if you have anything to say about it, or tips on possible solutions

I am falling in love with the car way too fast and can see us haulin *** for years to come, but of course i want to treat her right.

Will set up some pics tomorrow, thanks, later on

1) Read all posts by texasoil.

2) Read all posts by Q45tech.

Then you will be able to treat your car as it should be treated.

When you have read up on the car and want to ask some questions--please do so. You need to read the actsus suspension error code(s) by running the self diagnostics test.

Then we will work on the 'dancing', which can be cured by some non-OEM adjustments.
