'59 C4 GP VTR+ 1.6 suspension problem?

Unread post by Oletimer »

Evening everyone,

My '59 C4 GP 1.6 VTR+ is sort of 'skipping' when cornering - particularly if the surface is rough. It also does similar across manhole covers etc,
anyone any idea what's going on?
Thank you - in anticipation.
George
If it ain't broke - don't fix it! :help2:

You might find the suspension air bags are leaking..... It's a problem with these things over time and can lead to them failing on one of the rear corners. Is the car rising to the correct height at the rear and maintaining it? Does the manual raising and lowering of the suspension using the switch at the rear work properly?
