Raising max suspension height?

Hi All,

I am trying to find a solution to increase the max height my 2020 S350 can be raised when using the raise button. the reason for this is my front bumper lip scrapes badly when entering or exiting my garage space.

The module from lowered benz claims to do this but due to sanctions I am unable to order one from Belarus nor am I convinced the module can in fact increase the max height the car (+40mm claims the seller). I asked my local Renntech dealer and
he wasnt sure as no one had ever asked him this question before.

I do not wish to alter the standard ride height at all, its fine as is.

In my case, contrary to the entire internet, I do not want to lower my car, only raise it an extra 20mm when using the raise button for the reason above.

Is there a way i can do this without voiding my warranty? Car is a 2020 so still under factory warranty.

this is exactly what i was after. I asked the dealership about transport mode and they said it will only lift using the standard raise function. Thank you for responding to my question with the right answer!

In the other thread someone said it did not work for their MY14. I have not yet tried on my MY20 yet as its in for repair after a run in with a massive pothole last weekend
