I dont know if its true, but i heard that on W221 you can control the height on every setting S/C
Next time i have my cat in for oil change i'll ask my mechanic to check if he can do it for me.

That would be great if its possible to programme the S/C button for the rideheight you want it to be.

But would also render the point of lowering links and electronic lowering modules useless.

An issue then,would be allignment..

Thank you

Sorry I don't know the specs, the lowering is done by a Mercedes-Benz workshop. But the car is lowered as much as they can using Star. You can see how low it goes from my pictures, I'm satisified
