When it says the bottom of the wing what are we talking about here? To the top of the wheel arch or inside the wheel arch where the suspension is?

What is motorway height? Never seen that on my L322.

Over a certain speed the suspension lowered automatically. With the earlier cars, my TD6 had it, it was at 65mph. Later ones the speed for activating it was increased to, I believe 100mph. Don't know if it continued through all the L322 years.

On the TD6 there was an indicator on the console which showed what state the suspension was in.

Nothing on my TDv8.

Yes, I suspect it was on the earlier models only. Just like ability to set different heights. Either that or mine is broken as I have definitely done those speeds

I'm also not entirely convinced that those standard ride height values are correct for 2010+ model years. I've seen them before and I used them at my first attempt but it didn't look right to me. It seems to have the car too high and it looked a bit silly. I just took the liberty to shave off some height and make it visually more appealing.

I'm pretty sure this is what the default ended up looking like, which is too much 'monster truck' look for my liking...



But then, just for fun, I took it to the other extreme and brought it down (too) low....



And from there I just levelled the car to a height that looks nice, keeps the wheel archers filled, and still has scope left for both entrance mode lowering, and offroad mode raising.

I'm not sure that absolute values are that useful to share as there is some relative variation in it to level the car. But the GAP IID tool, makes this all pretty easy. And once happy with the standard ride hide, I then added the presets to the app so I can turn it into a low ridere or an offroad monster truck But everyday driving on my 22" with Pirelli's and active dynamic suspension is really nice...

these are the heights [same as the chart already posted] from the 2010-2012 WM so your adjustments must have been wrongly applied,

Yup I'm sure I've made the same mistake several times and remeasured them wrong again Which ever way I did not like the monster truck look, nor the handling it ends up with using those values.

Just to be sure.
You would take measurement like on this picture?[/img]

That is what I did. But according to Stan I did it wrong. So perhaps wait for someone to clarify on how to do it correct
