Mercedes Suspension Ride Height Sensor - VNE 0105427717

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 VNE

VNE GmbH was founded in 2001 by Volker Natorp in Hamburg, Germany. Volker has a long, storied history in the automotive field. He began his career in the 1970s working for Wulf Gaertner and in the 1990s eventually branched out on his own to start his own sales repping agency. During that time, he represented TMD Friction (Pagid/Textar) and managed all of the North American sales for them and eventually added Schaeffler Automotive to his roster.

In 2007, VNE GmbH relocated to Ganderkesee, Germany and was renamed VNE Automotive GmbH & Co. With continuous growth, the decision was made to solely focus on developing VNE Automotive and, in 2014, the focus became reality with the commissioning of a new warehouse and office space. Today, VNE Automotive prides itself on never having followed the aftermarket trend. VNE Automotive operates in a highly specialized, niche product sector, by only offering OEM automotive spare parts to more than 50 countries worldwide. This is evident from the unique, and sometimes hard to find, product groups spanning engine management, body electrical, and brake systems.
