Jaguar X350 SDD Air Suspension calibration problem.
Hello Gents,
I have jaguar x350 2008 there was a problem in front left stunt the car was not rising after change it the car went too high from front.
also I have changed exhaust valve.
Drove the car for a while then hooked up sdd v138 remove the car from transportation mode and start calibration procedure.
The problem is when I want to enter the value in the screen it tells me the value is out of the limit 😠
But in the beginning it tell you have to use the tool 204-484 so from this I guess that this is the limit.
I am using measuring tape I don't have tool.
I measured the front hight I found it reads 43cm so it's 430 mm then we have to add 44 mm to the actual value to achieve 386 so I have to put 474mm to calibration screen but it told me that your entry is out of the limit.
So guys what is the problem Am I doing it worng ?
It should be mention that there are no DTCs related to air suspension in SDD or dash board
Thanks for the help
It's probably been 10 years or more since I've done the setting but I believe you measure from the wheel center to the body?
You aren't measuring from the GROUND are you?
Yes I measured the hight from the center to the edge of body like indicates in the photo.
normal readings should be 386 front and 371 rear
My readings are 440 front 410 rear.
Note
Photo just for illustration

Your statement above confuses me. You do not add 44 mm you would deduct 44 mm to get 386 mm.
In any case you do not add or subtract anything to the actual figure 430 mm you enter the actual value.
IF that is still out of range I would suggest entering a lower value just to get it accepted and finish the procedure and then do it again with the new lower readings.

Thank you for your reply
I am following the instructions mention in the forum.
Is it wrong ??
It's getting perplexing for me.
It was not clear to me in your first post that you were trying to lower the suspension below factory settings.
Now I understand your intentions.
You likely will have to do two passes to fool the system i.e if 447mm is out of range then try 425mm first time around and then go with different figures next time around.
