The correct ride height for the RRS

I contacted the dealer today and got the recomended ride height from the arch to the centre of the hub
Front 461.3mm with a varience of +- 12mm
Rear 464.8mm with a varience of +- 12mm
At standard ride height.
I guess the varience is not applicable when setting it up, due to .3mm and .8mm, but applies when just generally checking the height.

The system is only accurate to about 10mm when running in normal tolerance so +/-12mm seems reasonable (assuming they mean "within 12mm" rather than "within 24mm" (which is what +/-12mm actually means)) 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Hello
Sorry i should have been slightly clearer.
The exact heights should be adhered to when setting level, using tight tolerance,
but when checking generally on normal tolerance it is acceptable to see the height either 12mm high or 12mm low.

That seems like a large tolerance still. If it was down one side and up the other by 12mm each that would be visibly noticeable.

Good info Shepp nonetheless!
