should be within a few mm's ...make sure its on absolutely level ground and toggle between all height modes and then measure with the engine running, joe90's height chart [below] might help,

The EAS has a + or - 9mm tolerance, so they could be up to 18mm different side to side,

Been out for a drive and took the readings as soon as I got home incase one corner was going down slightly. Now I'm running 255/55/20 tyres so obviously the 55 profile will make a difference. The measurements were as follows..

If you are measuring from the centre of hub or bottom of rim how will tyre profile make a difference ? |

Because the thicker profile tyre will be slightly higher off the ground won't it |

@JPS ... No problem, IID tool and RSW Allcomms can adjust the heights independently - make sure your car air suspension is in good condition before you start - ie no leaks.

It is no problem calibrating the system, just take your time and work through it, the instructions from Gap are excellent.
