Default Attention,there's an issue in SDD, be careful while doing wheel alignment.

Starting from v.134 SDD may not switch an air suspension in transport mode on a particular vehicles.
While doing a wheel alignment the suspensiom MUST be in transport mode or you'll mess the angles. If, while performing an alignment you'll see a strange measurements after doing some adjustments (i.e. mine castor was decreasing from 7' to 1' and will not increase even after a full turn of an adjustment nut), stop the procedure.
The workaround is to perform a wheel alignment while an engine is running.

Thans for sharing. On my V1.31 there's also the option of pre geometry, I thought that was specific for this adjustment. Was this deleted in the later version?

Well, i don't really remember how it was called in pre-134 versions.
There's an options to switch a suspension from customer to transportation mode and vice-versa, which should be used as described in Topix.
