Hi all - been researching the adaptive suspension (ISCM) and came across some older threads on folks who said they recalibrated their ride height sensors after installing lowering springs. Has anyone on here done this after lowering their car? I, for one, just slapped on my springs one afternoon and let it be - wondering if I could improve handling and ride characteristics by resetting my neutral ride height with SDD. I'm on H&R springs which lower the car a good bit (advertised around 1.2") and I imagine that could impact how the ISCM manages the dampers.

Related question: anyone use the pre-setup SDD installations from these guys?

Pushing this back to the top, anyone? Or do we all just lower our cars and let it go.

Also any SDD folks out there?

 

The way ride height calibration works on these cars, you have to input the value which keeps it in the correct range, if not you will have to correct what is wrong and then run calibration again. So you can't 'calibrate' it to the new lowered height, as the car won't accept a value that far out of range. Your best bet is just to leave it alone, if you run the calibration with actual measurements from lowering it won't take, and you'll have to lie to it and give values in the expected range. Since we don't have variable height on the steel spring cars anyway, there's not much you can change.

 

Makes sense, thank you!

 

Did you ever find an answer? I have the same issue after installing HR spings

 

Hmmm - I never really had an issue per-se, was just more concerned with performance calibration. No errors or anything - my guess is when you (or whomever installed the springs) were in there they may have wacked one of the sensors?
