Not sure when I’ll get to these, but have all parts to do so. I’m anxious to track your progress!
If I have to start replacing mechanical parts that were working fine 24 hours ago, and after hearing Jopecasa's story, this thing is getting BC Racing coil overs. I LOVE the air suspension, I drive this thing over curbs every now and then, but I don't want to be driving and have the system destroy axles or other parts.

Edit: Seems I may have borked the system because I had a bad front left ride height sensor? Voltage is within spec, but are off from the other sensors. This was before I messed with anything.
  1. Front Left = 3.28v
  2. Front Right = 1.72v
  3. Rear Left = 2.29v
  4. Rear Right = 2.45v

Or I have a bad offset count or something?
  1. Front Left = -130mm
  2. Front Right = 93mm
  3. Rear Left = 138mm
  4. Rear Right = 154mm

I read this thread: 4.8is SLS strange operating mode after calibration attempt. And it seems the offset count can be an important factor and should be set to 0 before calibrations? Anyone have experience with that or can tell me if my front left has sh*t the bed?
