VCDS Air suspension mod on 2017 Audi Q7

[B8ta]

So today with the new VCDS update (16.8), I attempted to change the suspension height in 17 Q7.....it ended in disaster until I figured out how to recalibrate back to reference level. I raised the overall height by 10 mm. Not much but it still worked. Im happy I did this with zero instructions other than my past experience with C7.5 Audi S7 that was my wife's car. Now i need to figure out how to get lower. Anyone here have any thoughts on what I can do to change the heights again?

After:


You probably cannot tell much, but I measured the fender to the ground it it was 10 mm taller in the Auto position.

Work in progress, but its nice to have gotten it done and look forward to actually lowering it some and adding some nice wheels.

I would have assumed it was the same procedure as the S7/S6/A8, from what I have read on the S7 it is with mixed results that people were able to get them to lower. But reading yours, you got it to go up, shouldn't you just adjust the values and it should lower?

It is a completely different procedure. The c7 platform uses module "Level Control" this uses module 77 "Adaptive Suspension" some of the menu features are the same but a lot, we have noticed, are completely different.

I know its an old thread but any update on this? Looking to get my wife a q7 with air and lowered my S7 with Vag and would like to do the same with the Q.

But you've figuered out how to lower the air suspension? I ask because i'm interested in doing so, on mine.

Thanks in advance

Can someone tell me how to lower a q7 2017 using VCDS?

Please tell me how I can lower a q7 using VCDS

I believe it takes a dealership tool to adjust the air ride height. There are also lowering links, which are probably the better choice.

i heard that its possible lower it in VCDS. They change the basic height setting of all wheels.

I dont know how, but I would like to:)
