I've just changed the access height from the standard -40mm to -70. It's like getting into a normal car now!

I'm thinking to purchase the IIDtool and the manly reason is to control the EAS heights.

I see many L322 with more height than mine i like the look much more.

But i have some questions related.

1 - How can i know the normal heights for my car?

2 - If i increase the height do i compromise anyway the safety when i'm driving?

3 - Can i step up 2 different heights one for normal driving and other to the automatic high speed height?

Thanks

1 - I think the IID gives the current value when changing. (Not 100% sure.) The IID does back up all values when you first plug it in.

2 - Obviously, a higher car has a higher centre of gravity. Sometimes that's a factor. I haven't played with the heights as I think JLR probably spent a lot of time and £££ getting them to what they are. Of course, some posters here have had very good reasons to change them e.g. Doing a limbo into a parking garage.

3 - Sorry, no idea.

^Thanks for the reply.

1 - I Ask how can i know my car normal heights because i use to see everyday near me an FF just equal as mine, same year, same color, same kind of 19'' wheels and same size of tires ( factory settings) and the distance from the tire to the car is more than mine, the car is taller and like much more the looking than mine!

I want to know the normal heights because i don´t if my FF is lower than normal or if the other FF is higher than normal.

2007 Range Rover Supercharged 4.2 SC V8 Zermatt Silver

Here's a question...my tool only allowed me to adjust my suspension up 10mm because one of the wheels was only that far away from the max absolute value allowed by the tool. Would removing this 10mm lift and recalibrating everything according to the instructions provided by GAP reset the height values to allow for a greater lift? Seems I should haves been able to get more than 10mm out of the adjustment...especially since it was really only the one wheel with a height value that high.

Is this the very reason why the calibration function exists?

Or could one of my rods be out of whack...necessitating that wheel to be lifted to a higher height value?

Thoughts?

pretty sure the IIDTool only allows changes of 10mm in one session, try again and see if you can go down another 10mm..

It was actually 13 that it would have allowed me but I kept it at 10 so I could remember how much I'd adjusted it so I could go back to the original setting. Wanted to keep it in increments of 10 so I'd remember it...so 10 was my self imposed 10mm interval max.

But just to rule that out I just tried it again and it would still only give me another 3mm. The other day I checked live values for the heights and sure enough they were very close to the absolute max for the tool (250?).

Stan i have the standard heights! ...and 18'' Wheels.

If i increase 20mm do you think it can be unsafe for driving?

I'm the only one who looks the taller look? Ex-FULLFATTY now downgraded
