Suspension Sits Very High On All Wheels 2006 Tdi.

[TONY TDI]

My suspension is very high up on my 2006 galaxy tdi on all four wheels and over bumps it feels like a rickety old bus about to fall apart. New MOT in november 2009 when l bought the car. When l look underneath all seems ok. Dont want to bother the garage just yet, incase its normal and ment to be this way. Can anyone comment. Mileage 55,000 and one previous owner.

Mine's an X reg facelift and has good suspension, much better than my -80mm slammed Golf :D That used to feel bad and rickety over bumps but that's because the suspension was so low.

 

Have someone else drive it (wife/friend/neighbour) to see if they think it's not right, mine handles better than some newer cars over bumps (09 Corsa, 52 Alfa, 07 Zafira) and certainly doesn't feel rickety.

 

You got some pics of the ride height? maybe the suspension is duff and sitting too high?
