(Home) suspension

Does anyone know if the 'TEMS' suspension as fitted to my Liteace MPV is serviceable?
It appears to be soggy and bouncy in either Norm or Sport mode.

I'm afraid not. Small motors on the top of each damper screw the rod in or out as directed by sensors in the steering column and braking system, making the ride hard or soft depending upon driving conditions as determined by the sensors. If you have a bouncy ride it looks like the shock absorbers are in need of replacement and they aren't cheap - about £110 each. You might want to check the TEMS motors first though by disconnecting then applying a current to each to ensure they activate. I believe there is an article on AceAnswers explaining their operation.
