Very easy to adjust. Look at the bottom of the strut for the little knob.

Seen Dave's car today, very smart. I love how it looks being lowered and those brakes look awesome. Can't wait to go for a spin :wink:
BMW 540i
2018 GTR
F90 M5
X3MC
RS3 Saloon
RS7 FL best car I've owned. No faith in turbo oil screen (turbos failing) or sticking oil scraper ring causing missfires.
F10 M5 LCI still no rear grip lol
S7 black Edition Too big and heavy
S3 8V FL DSG 310ps, road noise is a joke
RS3 8P Rubbish
C7 RS6 Fantastic car but missed playing
GTR R35 800bhp, too extreme, crazy fast though
911 Turbo Remapped. Hated it
F10 M5, awesome but no rear grip
RS6 V10 700BHP crazy
Porsche Cayenne Turbo S 600bhp

Cheers Paul. Still recovering from the trip to get the car but will get that wiring for the xenons for you in the morning.

I'm sure we can sort out a spin soon :wink:

Roll down your window. If you can see that its two pieces of glass stuck together, its dual pane ;)

Or check if you have 4KR in your service book sticker.
