Hey guys, reporting back after about 4 months using Roman’s Amazon module. The ride is stiffer, not bouncier, and handles well. To offset the stiffness I have the car lowered to my ideal height and only use comfort setting. When I am on the interstate I will use Sport+ or individual setting. I created an individual setting which uses sport plus gearing and steering along with comfort mode suspension. I love the look and I get compliments all the time. I am not going back to stock height unless airmatic fails on me.

I want to to note that, when lowered to my settings your alignment and camber is shot. I recently went to my Indy shop that specializes on Euro brands, and they did my alignment. Check out my before and after lmao. Please guys, if you don’t want to wear out your tires, get an alignment after lowering. It should be mandatory unless you like going through tired/got money to burn. I didn’t get an alignment right away as my glc is my weekend car.
Can you post some photos of your car?

The menu is VEHICLE / DYNAMIC SELECT / VEHICLE DATA

I have 2018 GLC43

i have a 2018 GLC 43 and I don’t see a lowering option when I go through the menu path above. Trying to figure it out. Thanks. Also new to posting on the forum.

Looks really good. Can you post your height numbers...ie. 22mm, etc. for both front/rear and what mode (comfort, sport, etc.) you are in. I'm assuming Comfort. Thanks!

F20mm/R24mm I believe. Could have been 25mm/30mm.

no. the car does that itself. It lowers by a unit of "1" (no confirmation that it is 1") in sport+ suspension mode.

the GLC63 let you raise it by a unit of "1" also, using a button between the seats, to clear obstacles i assume, but it is temporary and goes back down.

2018 GLC AMG 63 COUPE
Hi, your GLC looks great. Which lowering module did you go with? And has your truck been in for service since you have lowered it?
And did they say anything.

Thanks

It looks like this is the same seller that's on Ebay. Doesn't come with a Warranty at all, but I don't see any negative reviews either, so I think I'm going to order.

Can someone answer this questions (19 AMG GLC 63 COUPE).

From what I've read on here, when you place and drive the Vehicle in Sport+ mode, it lowers 1". So when I come back from a drive and park it int the garage, it looks like it stays in that lowered state (Car only has 83 miles on it). So if I put in in Comfort mode, came back and parked it, I assume it would be sitting 1" higher than when driven and parked in sport+?

When I get the module, do I lower it in Sport+ or in Comfort? Does it matter what mode I lower it in, since they will all be receiving the same ride height?

Lowering module

Can anyone who is using the lowering module speak to alignment after? I recall in this or another thread that lowering will require alignment after to avoid uneven tire wear.

Also the Renntech version is 3X the price?? Why....

Thank you for that. I should have my module at the beginning of the week. Time to order some BC Forged and 325's!

Jesse, received my links today. Wondering on the process you used to install. Did you jack the car up, remove the wheels and then get to the removal of stock links. Little hesitant at the moment.
