Default Suspension calibration on D3

Hi Colin,

I had problems doing mine. The technique with VCDS is very specific and is on the VCDS wiki.

Open controller, select channel 1, allow it to go down then up until it reads something like ready. Then put in value as measured. Press test then SAVE. Move to channel 2 and repeat including save. When all 4 wheels done, you need to put value (1 from memory) into channel 5, test then SAVE again. Only then will light go out and may need fault to be cleared.

You cannot miss any wheel and have to follow the sequence from channel 1 to channel 5.

I was missing out the save, worked for first 2 wheels, but gave invalid on channel 3 or 4 and light would not go off. I put standard values in first to prove it was all ok, before then redoing measurements second time around.

Good luck

Richard
