I emailed the Amazon seller but different time zones, so it will be a while before I get a response.
The car should go 1 inch up from sport + to comfort but 1 inch is not that much to see a difference .
I don't see much difference ether on mine but if you take a tape measure and check the height from the fender to the ground ,you will see a difference .
Good luck

I have it set in the low setting, not custom. The ride is obviously a little choppier as your taking travel out of the suspension, but I bought the module with the hopes of having a decent ride in the comfort setting, not being as low as the Sport + setting. I bought the car for the Ms, and she knows I modify all my cars (I have been modding hers for 10 years), but I was trying to avoid hearing her complaints about ride quality. I guess I'll have to wait another day or so for the vendor to get back to me and find out why the vehcile is not raising at all from Sport+ to Comfort.


So, I returned the car back to the stock settings. Went for a short drive in the car set in Comfort Mode. Came back to the driveway and parked/shut off the vehicle in Comfort Mode. Plugged in the module and set it to low, and it’s the same scenario. The car is the same ride height whether its in Comfort Mode or Sport Mode. Am I doing something wrong? The car should sit 1” higher in Comfort Mode?

Hello, sorry, I didn't notice your messagе.

The module cheats the car. The car thinks that it’s on normal suspension level, but it’s lowered.

So when you choose LOW in comfort mode, your car stays lowered, when you choose LOW in sport mode you car becomes lowered additional 15mm.

Hello,

I installed the module and left it on the low setting (Not custom). The vehicle stays int hat low setting, whether its in sport or comfort. I thought it would raise up 1” in the comfort mode, and not be as low as it is in sport? Please advise.

Mike

You know what , I never did low because some member here said that the ride quality is choppier . I did custom front at -19mm and rear -24mm and love it , when we do long trip ,I go back to stock . Also I have a 43 ,not a 63 .
Without driving ,what you may want to try is to set custom front at stock and rear at - 35mm or the opposite and see if front or rear drop to make sure it's working .
About your ride quality ,more you go low ,more the ride is going to bouncy

I have never used low, so I cannot be of help. I ony use Custom.

turn car on, plug in module, change height, and unplug module. This should lower the car within minutes.

Here's my car currently at 25mm front, 30mm rear. Please not my tires are 28.7" tall instead of factory 29.3" tall.

if you were asking me,

20x9, +20 offset, 275/40R20 Tires Front
20x10.5, 30mm offset, 315/35/R20 Tires Rear

To my amazement, the car self adjusted the speedo for my new tire size which is 28.7" tall versus stock 29.3" tall. I do not know how.

All of you guys that are lowered, did you complete a wheel alignment after or was the tire wear acceptable? Does the car still lower itself more at speed as per the OEM or the dialed in ride height stays the same no matter whether the cars is parked or moving?

Is there still enough ground clearance for winter with it being mildly lowered? I like the ability to raise the car up for winter and lower it for summer driving.

That's what I'm thinking as well. Considering lowering it 15mm still falls in the alignment allowance due to the car automatically lowering that in sport mode, one would think that it should be okay lowering it 15mm and not have any issues.

I want this. So no doubt it will work on a 2019 AMG GLC 63S Coupe?

I have emailed my VIN to the seller but I have no patience so I want to hit the order button on Amazon.

Whether it has camber adjustments or not, that's not what kills tires unless at extremes. Toe wear is what will scrub tread off tires quickly. Depending on the geometry of the suspension, if camber doesn't change much as the suspension moves through its range, all should be fine. If camber does change a lot, toe will be affected and there will be wear issues. Considering that this vehicle adjusts ride height via air suspesion, I wouldn't worry about small changes. If you do a huge drop, you may need to reconsider...

Well darn, this thing arrived very quickly to Texas but it was delivered as a "signature required" so I missed it. I have to wait until morning before I can go pick it us. I feel disappointed that I missed it as I was sitting in my home office and watched the lady bring it to to my door. I get a lot of packages so I ignored the doorbell and then went out to see what it was and I had the dang missed package slip on my door. Considering Amazon shows it will "arrive Friday Aug 16th- Wednesday Aug 21", I guess I can't be too disappointed.
