VCDS Level Contol - yellow suspension light stays on

[richardracer]

Hello Folks,

I am after some advice from the experts on here please. My D3 S8 has standard suspension, has 160,000 miles and had a new compressor/relay about 60,000 miles ago. I cannot hear any funny noises and had no warning lights when I started.

I wanted to rese my suspension level, since it has been grounding a bit recently and I have just put my summer wheels (20") back on. I had no warning lights on.

I went into VCDS level control module, typed in security code, then worked through channel 1, 2 3, and 4. Channel 4 gave invalid value and I was nor able to set channel 5 to 1 as required. Problem is yellow suspension light came on!

Have gone through the whole calibration procedure about 20 times with no joy.

In the last 3 or 4 attempts, the initiation (suspension to low, suspension to normal, then enter values for channel 1 got stuck at suspension on low, but dash display showed suspension down (white down arrow) and the suspension up (white up arrow) then static (both arrows black).

I also removed the DTC to no avail several times.

Any suggestions what I am doing wrong or what might have happened.

Thanks
