D3 ride height.

Paxmanmerv · Aug 29, 2020

Morning all!
Looking at calibrating the suspension on our D3. Information seems either to be sketchy or conflicting...
Had a look through some posts here but cant seem to find any definitive information on ride height (could be that i looked at the wrong posts).
Anyone happen to know the factory settings from wheel centre to wheel arch both front & rear.
Any help here would be much appreciated.
Many thanks all!

Try a google search, I think its something like 465mm front and 485mm rear, centre of wheel to bottom of arch.

I increased the normal height of mine, just for looks really. I added 20mm to the standard height, then had the suspension alignment corrected, this was after I'd replaced all the wishbones, so I knew everything was factory fresh in the suspension department.

I would need longer legs to do that!

Thanks for getting back to me Lynall, 465 & 485 it is then!
Many thanks.

An extra 20mm sounds interesting Nodge68, might have a look at that when i get everything else working ok.

Easy to do with the IID BT from Gap Diagnostics.
