Recalibrate Magnaride? - Page 2

For those that want to reset their trim height DIY.

I picked up one of these mainly to do ABS brake bleeds but I found that it also does trim height reset for our cars.

Interesting. If you try resetting it lower, take some before and after photos. I’m curious if that actually works to lower it.

I don't believe it will lower it. I think it's just to recalibrate our MRC shocks so the shocks operate exactly like they did stock.

If any of you that want the "trim height calibration" done and don’t have luck at the dealer, talk to Xineering. https://shocksims.com/ can sell software/hardware for doing the calibration.

DSC Sport programming is quite different from OEM, and zeroing the DSC won't necessarily zero the OEM module, although it could, IDK for sure but I doubt it. I think the only way to get a before/after is to install the DSC, drive it, then zero it and drive it again. Zeroing is only necessary if you lower the car though.

I mostly got the DSC so I could change spring rates via custom springs and have a way to adjust the damping to suit, but the new springs will also lower the car a bit.

I'll post a thread on it soon, I'm sending some OEM springs to a company that makes custom springs and plan on getting a stiffer rate + lower ride height. I called DSC and they said they'd help with altering the basemaps for the new springs as well.

I expect springs to be in the $300-400 range and the DSC is $1400. Not cheap but DSC's Tractive coilover kit w/controller is around $8k and this will be just as good, but not as adjustable.
