Default Flashing suspension module, from sport to normal

Hi,

I just learned that the normal suspension is on different levels on comfort and dynamic modes, but sport suspension is always low if not in the lift mode.

I have sport suspension, but I would like try to flash the normal suspension software to my suspension ECU to get the different ride levels. That higher comfort level would be good in winter, and I don't want to use always the lift mode.

Has anyone tried that? And where to get the firmware?

Yes, the suspension is one of few modules that has flash capability. VAG CAN Professional will flash modules, but I suspect getting hold of the firmware will be the tricky bit (you could search the internet - firmware files end in .SGO), plus I have no idea if VAG CAN Pro use OEM firmware. Replacing your existing module with a 'non sports' unit would be the easier route.
