Vehicle Height With Air Springs (Except For Gts)
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
Information
- The following values relate to the curb weight, i.e. full fuel tank, vehicle with tyre repair kit (or spare wheel, collapsible wheel) and tools, but without driver and without additional weights.
- Tyre pressure in accordance with specifications.
- If the vehicle is a Cayenne with air suspension, it must be adjusted to normal level. Adjust the vehicle from terrain level to normal level. Only align and adjust the vehicle in this position.
- If the control unit or one of the self-levelling sensors has been replaced, calibration must be carried out using the Porsche System Tester.
Adjust vehicle to normal level:
- Stop the vehicle and apply the brake.
- Close vehicle doors.
- Adjust the vehicle to terrain level. To do this, tap the rocker switch on the centre console in the appropriate direction until the vehicle is set to terrain level.
- Open the door.
- Select normal level.
- Get out and close the door. The vehicle switches to normal level.
- Deactivate the levelling system using the Porsche System Tester.
Do not get back into or out of the vehicle again after setting it to normal level for suspension alignment. This can give false alignment results.
Then adjust to the vehicle's normal level. The middle indicator light next to the rocker switch is permanently on. If a further indicator light should come on, a different level is set.
To avoid level adjustment of the air suspension during alignment, switch off the levelling system and switch it back on again when the work is complete.
