Stock Ride Height for Dynamic setting

[dave329]

Comfort/Auto mode provides 7 inches (178 mm) of height and is the standard ride height. The Allroad setting levels at 8.2 in. (208 mm) and is also the fixed ride height of the SQ5 and Q5 standard suspension. In Lift/Offroad mode the SQ5 sits at 9 in. (228 mm). Dynamic mode sits at 6.4 in. (163 mm). There’s a switch in the cargo area that when pressed will drop the SQ5 a couple inches (50 mm) to make it easier to load and unload items in the trunk. The ride height adjusts automatically based on the mode and the speed that you are traveling.

The standard adaptive damping suspension has three modes, comfort, auto and dynamic to go along with that 8.2-in. (208 mm) ride height.

Thank you sir! This is the exact info I was looking for. Much appreciated!

Lol. Now do you know how to lower these cars aside from the lower links? Read the factory tool can do so but my tech wasn’t able to figure it out...

Nope one week in so I would think that the suspension only does what it will do. But if you figure it out let me know.

So far only the factory tool can lower it for sure. It’s a recalibration process that involves having the wheels off the ground if I remember right. Unfortunately that’s all I know as I had my shop do it (Pacific German). I’m lowered both in the CPU and with the links as CPU can only go so low.

Gotcha. Yeah I’ve see pictures of your car. Looks great with the adjusted height. I guess will just have to wait until more development happens. Did you do the lowering links before the factory tool drop? Curious how low the car gets with only links.

Thanks! Yea I did the links first then switched up to see if the ride quality changed - and it did not. I never tried to go as low as possible but i think I have seen someone else on here who did. The pics looked like tucking tire in the front and rear, but thats way lower than I would go anyway. I would have to suspect from what they posted and my experience that the air spring is going to be too deflated and will be bouncy and not the best ride...at least while at the dynamic ride height.
