Hi
I bought a pro scanner and scanned all systems in the car but no codes found?
I got into suspension module and read data. Found that speed signal is very high like I'm driving 100km it will show around 180km?
What should I do? Should I replace suspension module?

If you have a pro scanner you should be able to pull a code I don't think you do I think you got one from an auto parts store which arent' the same. Check these sensors in front for being bent or a rod broken then see if you can pull a code and you have to know if it has Z95 option or not. Which should be on glove box door. See pic you will have one of these on each wheel area.

Then check bushing for a front end problem like in control arm bushings or worn ball joints etc. If you are getting no codes then it 's another problem like I described with the sensor disconnected/bent arm or like that.
If the system is functioning abnormally, performing the ALC Trimset recalibration procedure may correct the condition. When a system component has been replaced, ALC Trimset calibration must be performed. In the scan tool Special Functions menu, select ALC Trimset and follow the screen prompts to perform the procedure. Once the process has been completed, the system should be fully functional.
