Looks like I'm short at least 2bar from your top readings, especially Lift and Comfort (Automatic) ????
Is the log always available and autosaves every time you stop a car or you have to enable test via VCDS before journey ?? Sorry, this might be a stupid question ![]()

For the log, on the measuring screen press the log button in the bottom right. VCDS will ask for a filename, then off you go. When done, press close log and look in the logs folder.

...wait, do you guys think that lower pressure could be the reason behind lowering issues, such as each axle won't go below -10 or -15mm mark from the zero value ??
Sorry, completely different subject, but I'd like to see what you think/know about that

Looking at your logs I would say your compressor is good, looking through it I guess you were either changing the settings in mmi or you were running in automatic and went above the speed threshold were the car self lowers.
The way the system works the pressure reading is only true when the car is being lifted when the accumulator valve is open. With that in mind the best test will be by doing the output tests i mentioned earlier as it is the only way you will get a max pressure reading. Your log shows that the compressor quickly recovers the pressure when it switches on so your good.

Marcin for your lowering issue I don't think thats pressure related as to have the car lower air needs to be released from the strut not put in.

Hi Chaps,
As promised heres my pressure (max) reading. To carry out the following test the engine does not need to be running, which helps as you can hear the compressor start and stop. To get the true output of your compressor, open Level control module (34) and select output test Then keep clicking next through the tests until you get to Pressure Accumulator test. Once you have started the test you will hear the compressor run, let it run till it stops and you will see your max pressure.
