    There's a few B6s both sedan and avant and a bunch of B7s on air. B6 and B7 uses the same suspension set-up.

    I'm currently on the Airlift Autopilot V2 setup and I love it, wouldn't choose a different setup but if I were to change anything it would be to upgrade to the Accuair VU4 manifold (nicer, supposedly a lot better & reliable, ability to do hard line setups.) I've dealt with cars using the Switchspeed Analog, Autopilot V2, and E-Level setups and in my opinion I prefer the Autopilot V2.

    Switchspeed Analog - Why waste your money? Get Autopilot V2 or E-Level.

    Autopilot V2 - Simple controller with a ton of options on it. 8 presets are extremely nice and at first I didn't think I'd need more than 2 but I was wrong. Can be set to automatically rise upon start up to your first preset. Ability to maintain your preset within 3 psi or something like that although it is a bit slow. Tank pressure and bag pressure displayed on the controller. Illumination can be changed to desired color to match your interior lighting, compressor run time, compressor maintenance, and a lot more features.

    E-Level - Extremely easy to use controller and can be figured out by anyone (unlike the Autopilot V2 which can be confusing). Only three presets but if you don't need any more than that you should be fine. Sensors can be a PITA to mount and calibrate (they aren't cheap either.) Easily adjust front and rear height with the press of a button (up or down arrow) unlike the Autopilot V2 system which has to be done manually for each corner unless you have a preset. Adjusts height to maintain preset extremely fast.

    Bottom line is if you want the ride height to be adjusted to maintain the preset more precisely or the ability to use your iPhone/iPad then get the E-Level setup otherwise save your money.

    I have the Airlift V2 on my B6 and I'm quite happy with it. The install is fairly straightforward and the it's pretty reasonably priced (compared to it's competitors). Airlift as a company is awesome and really stand behind their product. My install thread is somewhere here on the B6 forum if you do a bit of searching.

    I sourced my kit from Open Road Tuning in PA and they took very good care of me.

    I also considered going with Accuair E-Level, however, I could not justify the extra expense and install hassle when the V2 presets work great (once you get them set up).
