Not to bring up an ancient thread but I have searched for hours now and cannot find the proper ride heights (ground to fender). I am suspicious mine is sitting low but i have no codes. Just a harsh ride...
thanks |

Hey guys I thought I would post up since I went out to measure my car today, and I think I need to get my ride height calibrated correctly, I always suspected that my car "looked higher" than it should with Sports Package (so I have sports suspension) and I also have EHCII dual axle air suspension like the 4.8is on my 3.0i.
I measured from the bottom edge of my Style 168 wheels to the bottom of the fender arch, and measured just under 29.5 inches (749 mm!), and about the same on the rear as well. Although I have dual axle suspension I assume I should be using values of 707 front and 709 rear, I can't believe its possible that last time my height was calibrated it was 40mm off! Is the ride height value 707mm / 709mm ONLY for 4.8is? Or does it apply to all models with 20" wheels and EHCII (the rarely equipped 3.0's and 4.4's)? I'm just wondering if I should lower to 722 and 724 (non-sport values), as that is already an inch of lowering from where I am now.

When I calibrated my suspension, DIS told me that the sport suspension wasn't detected. I don't know why.
You can still make it calibrate to where you want it by doing the math and putting those values in the calibration routine...

Ricky_Bobby, you have 20" wheels and 2-axles air suspension. I'd go with 707F/709R.
Personally, I would lower it another inch from that value.

That must assume the OEM tires are on the X and inflated to recommended pressure.

I just calibrated my ride height last week
bought gt1 with inpa/ncs/navcoder bundle from ebay used INPA very easy to do, it tells me to set height to 707 front 709 rear the program is so easy use F9 to access e53, than click on the ehc-2 than hit F6 to activate F5 to calibrate press F1 to open the calibration and just plug in the height difference you want in MMs I measured my heights and my back right was higher than the left so when it asked for rear L - R I just typed in -6 for right side to raise it slightly typed 8 on both the front because I wanted it lower press ok 2 seconds later the airide moves and your done F10 to exit that screen than you just drop your bags then raise it back to normal and recheck your heights to make sure its good if you are near Canada BC Vancouver/delta/Richmond I can do it for a small fee
