Raised Airmatic Settings

Hello All,

I just installed a lowering module from amazon on my 2015 S550. I lowered to -70mm at first but it was too low for driving around (almost fender to wheel fitment tucking the whole tire on 22" wheels), so I changed the setting to -50mm and it is tucking about half the tire. When I raised it up using the button in the car it is a little lower than stock. I looked in the manual and it says as you increase in speed with this button pressed and the car aired up, the car will drop back down, and raise back up when you decrease in speed. Does anyone know at what speed the car lowers back down? I will post pics of the car later, it was dark when I installed it.

Thanks,
Ajay

I remember I saw it mentioned in the digital owner manual. I believe it was something between 120 to 140 KM/H

There is a chart somewhere. The lowering and raising don't come at the same speed. As you increase to the lowering speed (I think it's 50mph) the car lowers. To raid back up you'll have to hit a slower speed, like 40mph. I'll see if I can dig up the chart.

Thanks! It will look way better with the new wheels and hopefully have better fitment (might have to run spacers).
