Auto Levelling Suspension
Was having a look through my Signum's manual the other day and came across info on the 'auto levelling suspension', where the suspension will adjust and level out after 2 miles of driving if youre carrying a load. I understand this would have been an optional extra when the car was ordered new, but how do I know if my car has this feature? Most of my driving involves carrying a boot full of heavy stuff, but I can't say I've noticed the rear end of the car adjust when driving!?
Look at the rear shocks...
Looking somthing like this.. then maby either self leveling or IDS+ suspension
on a volvo, these are called nivomats.....infact looking at that pic they look very similar to the pair i have for the volvo.
what are they called for a vectra?

Self leveling suspension.. and there is NO make on the shocks.. and non of the big produceres will say they have made it.. (trust me i contacted 5 of them to hear if they made them...)
but they are quite expencive... about RRP is about 450£ for both in the UK.
Cheers for the pic, tried to have a look but cant see much, going under the car this weekend anyway to screw back on the exhaust casing thats come loose lol so will check then!
Can they be retrofitted to any vec?
Yes I just did it. Ths shocks has "all included" so you just change the shock, and voila, you have a self leveling car. I just did it, orded them from autovaux. 300 £ + VAT (in norway, 1140 £ inkl norwegian VAT)Originally Posted by mucklestone
And its about ½ hour work...
Ive retrofitted them to mine too
But more to the point, do they work?
yes they do
Ive put 350kg in the back dropped 1 cm, in the rear.
