Lowering an L322

Sorry to bump this up but wondered if you got any decent answers glenbat, just be interested to know

I had my 2005 TD6 lowered by 50mm when i replaced the 18 inch alloys with 20 inch alloys a few weeks ago...i found it improved the ride quality, and makes the car stance look better,, at the same time i had it remapped and WOW!!! would reccomend the remapping to everyone, it has a load more power and torque....took it down to birmingham and south wales last week and it returned 28mpg ( checked and calibrated through fuel refills and not the computer ).

bob

cheers people, Bob.lydon who/where did you have yours lowered? and was it done with a lowering kit, or changing the values in the ecu?

And where did you get the remapping done?

22 posts and no ones asked the essential question?? "how much do ya whores charge??" & do we get a discount for been LZ members???

coke off her sweaty slit

I had a local ( tyne and wear ) guy adjust the values in the ECM using a T4 testbook, although i have a Launch X431 which can do it i left it to the proffesionals as he was also carrying out a remap of the ECM at the same time (TD6).

Yes I also had that tyne and wear Guy do my Rangy and he does a great job looks and handles much better .
He advertises on ebay under airsuspensionlowering
would reccommend to anyone

why not try this site hes good and in the north east but travels round the country !!!!

www.wpautosolutions.co.uk

does a fantastic job lowering and remapping

Just stick a screwdriver in the air bags that'll lower it a treat.

Just wondered if there is any mechanical/physical reasons why you couldnt lower an L322? I know most on here disagree with it, and everyones entitled to an opinion but i was wondering if theres any stress put on any part of the vehicle by lowering it?

Also, the 2 options i've seen are having it reprogrammed, or the lowering links kit, what option looks best, or is least likely to give me problems?

one question i have is why would you want to lower it?
