If a C5 was stuck in hard mode would Lexia say so?

Post by Jabo »

Hey guys

I feel that either my spheres are in need of replacement (could be, the car is 11 years old) or that I'm stuck in hard mode all the time.
The Lexia says it's in soft mode the majority of the time like it should but the ride is as bumpy as hell, and the H3+ Sport button doesn't make a difference to the ride.

Would the Lexia report hard mode even when it *should* be in soft mode?

Another question, my steering angle sensor seems to be always reporting -128 degrees. Is that a problem?

Have you tried recalibrating angle sensor ?

Is there a procedure to it or do you just choose the option in Lexia?

Bump for this, it's still unsolved.
