I'm sorry, but I failed to mention in my earlier post that I already have BMW INPA, Tool32, etc. all downloaded and installed on a laptop.

I was looking for INPA instructions on how to calibrate or reset the suspension.

Great tip on the AT-205. I want to get some for my CV boots

Can anyone please shed light on what needs lubing via use of photos or diagrams when it comes to the air suspension issue?

The air spring is a big rubber “sock” that’s inverted over a big plastic tube. It makes a very sharp turn so there’s a crease. I think you have to jack the axle up to maximize extension and then spray the treatment up inside the area where it folds. I will try to do this treatment soon and take photos.

i just remove the wheel, jack up the rear from the body and then spray the airbag and then use a disposable glove to get the liquid covering the backside of the cylinder.

I've purchased ATP AT-205 from Amazon in the USA and had it shipped to NZ - wasn't even very expensive (maybe $25?).
