Hi all
Apologies for being a newvbie - does anyone know how to gauge when the vehicle is at its lowest ride height when stationary. I have been flicking the down switch but only a minimal decrease in height and i could have sworn when the dealer demo'd it the car was a lot lower???

If you press lower for short time it will lower to access, if you press longer it will lock at access height.
There is not ahuge difference between normal and access but difficult to know without a pic to compare.“There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely gamesâ€

In normal you can kinda see the top of the UCA, in access you can't really see anything in the wheel well.
To lower, just pull the toggle switch back (towards you) and in the instrument cluster it'll say "Access height Selected" and you can feel it lower down. 17 Discovery 5 HSE Si6, Fuji White on brown | 07 LR3 SE 4.4 Java Black on Alpaca

Not necessarily....just prevents someone from accidentally hitting the switch, and unintentionally raising it.
To unlock, just push the switch like you want to raise, and hold it there. Then the lock light will go out. 17 Discovery 5 HSE Si6, Fuji White on brown | 07 LR3 SE 4.4 Java Black on Alpaca
