Calibrating the levelling system: Checking

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Porsche Macan and 2015 Porsche Macan. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Calibration must be performed if one or more of the following situations apply:

Control unit was replaced.
Level sensors were replaced.
Vehicle lies to one side after being raised. If lifting platform mode is activated, carry out a test drive (lifting platform mode switches off and the vehicle corrects itself). If this does not work, check the system for faults → 430149 TROUBLESHOOTING THE LEVELLING SYSTEM and then calibrate the system.

Level sensors are calibrated by determining a correction value (corresponding to the actual height of the vehicle) and storing it permanently in the control unit.
