Self levelling - need engine running ?
« on: 18 April 2011, 18:34:53 »

As above - does the engine need to be running for the self levelling to work, or should it operate (by manually moving the sensor arm) with just the ignition on ?

Should only need the ignition on as far as I can see.

Sorry to hijack this,but curious to know if you can make much difference to the ride height by altering the arms position on the rear sensor...
