Vehicle height/wheel load

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2004 Porsche Boxster, 2003 Porsche Boxster, 2002 Porsche Boxster, 2001 Porsche Boxster, and 2000 Porsche Boxster. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

There is no facility for adjusting the vehicle height. This applies to both the front and the rear axles.

The varying thickness of rubber pads between coil springs and spring seats on the right and left spring struts on the front and rear axles is not intended for changing the vehicle height but for compensating for differences in coil-spring load groups.

Since the vehicle height can no longer be adjusted, there is no need for adjustment (fine adjustment) of the wheel-load difference between left and right at the front and rear axles. Because of the different equipment versions (additional equipment), a greater wheel-load difference between the left and right is permissible than previously was the case in Porsche suspension alignment (over 20 kg is possible; max. was previously 20 kg).

This is partly the result of heavier components compared with standard equipment and partly results from additional components that are asymmetrically arranged.
