Audi Suspension Ride Height Sensor - Genuine Audi 8R0941286F

Product Information

A suspension ride height sensor is an electronic device that measures the distance between a vehicle’s chassis and its suspension or axle. It is commonly found in vehicles with air suspension or adaptive suspension systems. The sensor continuously monitors ride height and sends signals to the suspension control module, which then adjusts air springs, dampers, or headlight leveling systems.

• Uneven vehicle stance – one corner or side sits higher or lower than the rest.
• Warning light on dashboard – suspension or ride control fault indicator appears.
• Rough or unstable ride – suspension doesn’t adjust properly to road conditions.

About Genuine Audi

The original parts used by Audi to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine Audi” brand. Manufactured under the direction of Audi, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are available exclusively through the Audi Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Audi are not necessarily manufactured by Audi. No cause for concern, as Audi designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Audi for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Audi parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of an Audi logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
