OBD Reader that can read "Service Suspension"
I got a "Service Suspension" warning twice, but the car is driving fine. I'd like to read the fault myself before I return the car to bone stock for the dealership.
Is there an OBD2 reader that can read suspension codes? Autozone's reader showed no codes. It was all clear.

I am not sure if it will show the exact code, but I picked up with Foxwell OBD2 scanner off Amazon and have used it for a couple things and its super easy to plug and use here's a link to it -

Thanks. In the description it says, "2.All ELM327 only read the engine errors , can not read the special errors for abs, airbag and so on."

Unfortunately, for anything outside the ECM/TCM, you're likely going to need a GM specific reader like a Tech II+MDI.
I'd suggest taking a look at the suspension travel sensors and connectors going to the dampers on all 4 corners to see if you can visually find something wrong first. For instance, it seems like the suspension travel sensor links like to pop off when these cars go on a dyno, and it'll be visually obvious if one of them came off. If you find something like that and the code persists after you fix it, try disconnecting the battery for 10 mins to clear the code. If all that fails, might have to make that trip to the dealer.

Yep, nothing outside of the tools that the GM techs use can read the suspension, airbag and ABS modules.

BlueDriver ($99 on amazon) says they can do enhanced codes (read and clear) except for airbags. I've contacted the company to see if it will do suspension but have not received a reply yet.
Anyway, I bought one and will see if it can when I get it.

A tech at a Firestone read the codes with a high-end Autel.
