You have to run the height sensor calibration and carry out the standard procedure but when inputting the measurements you add/substract to these the amount of milimeters you want to lower/raise the car. Say you want to increase the standard height of the rear axle by 10mm, so if the rear left wheel measure is 657mm and rear right wheel measure is 652mm you substract 10mm from these and input into the calibration 647mm & 642mm. This will "trick" the sensors to be believe the car is lower and will raise it :smile I haven't tried it yet though

I have the latest ISTA+ and have carried out a height sensor calibration in my M760 which effectively corrects uneven heights between corners. The method described and shown to me by the dealer using the same ISTA+ on a 2017 G11 worked very well and I'll try it out soon on my car


I am interested in this. Please report back.
