    Ok so i just purchased a 2015 new to me overland model, and i just got it inspected, the person who i usally go to didn't know how to turn it off. I am thankful both for his honesty and this video to figure out how to turn it off while it got the car inspected thanks.

    Great video, thanks for making this video. Just turn mine to tire jack mode so I can work on the transmission filter and fluid change. I did hear the air leak out in the air lines in the engine area. Doing ano second task and saw this video. Luckily the battery had been dead and just replaced. All these fancy air suspension is nuts. LOL

    Thanks Jimmy...now I know what to tell service tech's when I replace tires/brakes, etc. If you saw the guys I have to deal with you'd understand why I don't trust them to know or care.

    I lifted a lot of Mercs , Audis and BMWs with air suspensions but never had blown air strut . Before time i was locking them all ( if they allow you , because BMWs doesn't have that option on every model , maybe the new ones have it , not sure ) . But i read somewhere a bulletin about the jacking mode on Audi and they claimed that this jacking mode is for easier tire changing method . If you not lock the suspension you will have to jack up the car really high to be able to change the tire on the road .

    No your air suspension does not blow out if you forget to use the setting. But it can push the truck off the jack, if using the jack from the trunk or roller jack.

  • @JeepdudeFL
    @JeepdudeFL ปีที่แล้ว

    This is a good practice, but not required for a oil, tire or brake service on a lift. If you are changing a tire on the side of the road, it's much safer to disable first. (It's in the owner's manual)

      @@joseamaro3810 There's no way to turn the system off. The tire jack mode only disables it until you start driving the vehicle.

      Once you hit 50 mph the car lowers .5 inch to increase gas mileage.

    • @RuffneckG
      @RuffneckG 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      “AERO” mode = Aerodynamic
      It slightly lowers the front of the vehicle at high speeds (50mph+) to help reduce wind resistance helping in gas mileage for long road trips on straight highways
