Reversing 402 mod question...
Hi guys, I asked this question last week but I wasn't specific enough. I did the 402 mod 6 weeks ago and I want to return it to the stock setting. I entered 417 on all 4 sides. what (exact) numer do I input to return to the stock height?
402? or 387?. Someone said "just do the reverse of what you did to undo the mod" which I get, but I need the input numbers. Thanks in advance!
By the way, I had a new Arnott compressor installed and everything works perfect now, as far as the suspension

If you originally did nothing other than program a 417 on all four corners to lower the car by 15mm, then you now must program 387 to raise the car 15mm on all corners.
I am assuming that you have not tried any other program setting other than the 417 subsequent to the car's original 402 mm level.
BTW...
I find it easiest to measure the distance from the top edge of the wheel rim to the upper edge of the fender arc. To this number I add one half the diameter of the wheel rim.
In my case with the double spoke wheels, the rim diameter is 470mm. Half that is 235mm. So the distance from the top edge of the wheel rim to the fender edge should be 167mm to get the standard 402mm setting. (IN LEVEL 2)
I place the end of my tape measure on the top edge of the wheel rim and note the distance to the highest point on the fender edge. For example, if the distance from the wheel rim to the fender is 160 mm, I add that number to the radius of the wheel rim (235 mm) and get a height of 395 mm. It is the 395 mm which is programmed in the "402 Mod" to get the car back to original specs.

That's what I was looking for...
