  • Ford Mondeo Estate Ghia X Suspension Pro 5 Aug 2014 (Forum)
    I have a 2001 model which I believe has self levelling suspension? I purchased the car from a Ford dealer in Belgium. I used to tow a caravan with no problems. Last yaer a mechanic carrying out a pre mot sevice told me he had to replace a rear shock so replaced both but not with Ford parts. Since then my rear suspension is much softer, the car sits about 3 inches lower and the self levelling suspension is not working.
