Hi all,
I am having a weird issue with my GL550. I have changed the suspension valve block, the suspension compressor and the rear shock as I had a warning and the rear passenger shock failed. The car drives much better now but after each time I recalibrate the car to level, after driving the measurements are out by one inch. If I set the front suspension to equal on both sides and the back to exact and then drive the car, when I remeasure the front is one inch higher. I have reset this multiple times and in the beginning the passenger was one inch lower, now the drivers side is one inch higher. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I am recalibrating with a TOPDON Scan Pro.

THANK YOU in advance

 

Who is in the passenger side?

 

hahahaha

 

When you are recalibrating, is it saving the settings? I know when using Xentry, you have the option to manually adjust the height but once you exit it reverts back to the original settings. There is a programming/coding section where you make the adjustments and it codes it to the module and saves the changes.

Not sure how the TOPDON Scan Pro works but perhaps check if that is possibly the case.

Other item to mention, is while driving it's constantly adjusting, once you park, at least I've noticed that only after closing the door and locking the vehicle, it will adjust again.

BTW - @OldManAndHisCar - that was funny.

 

I am adjusting it manually and there is no way to hit a button to save settings! I was wondering this myself but because I couldnt find any save button, I figured it was doing it for me. I will look into the coding area but I dont think the TOP don has it. Thank you very very much!!!!

 

That is your exact issue. You have to find the screen that looks almost identical to the "manually adjust each strut page" but on the bottom (at least on mine) it will say save new settings. Then it will ask for some kind of inclination angles or something. I just put in the upper limits of the vales it says on the screen. Something like 4.8 for the front and -1.8 for the rears or so.

This is how you can manually set the stock ride height. Cars usually lower it right down, SUVs like to raise it a little.
