Different height RRS

I keep seeing lower RRSports. Mine on normal height, is there lowering kits available?

There are various means of lowering - replacing the height rods, fitting LLAMS height adjustment system, reprogramme height with something like a Gap tool.

These look like standard older cars. does the air suspension sag over time? :wink: 2011 RRS facelift

Generally the air either works or drops, they don't ride lower (because the height sensing is separate to the airbags).

No it does not sag over time - it is deliberate using something as I described above.

I run my car at 1" lower than onroad height by using my LLAMs height adjust system.

Does it handle any better an inch lower, or is it just for looks?

It drives better and is easier to get in and out of.

I dont think it makes the car look better - the proportions are not right. 07MY RRS TDV6

Driving or parked?

Driving you need to reprogramme the suspension using a programmer or dongle.

Parked - Use the "Access Height" setting on the suspension on older RRS and "Automatic Access Height" on new shape RRS 2016 RRS 4.4 TDV8 Autobiography Dynamic in Montalcino Red and Stealth Kit

I have a GAP tool, and lowered mine, not by too much I thought, but it lost it's magic carpet ride. When I re-set it to standard, it was sooo much nicer. Not something I'd do again, even for looks.
