Default Sport Air Suspension

I just picked up my 2018 Mythos Black Metallic SQ5 Prestige w/DAP, S Sport, Cold Weather and 21" Wheels 2 days ago after a long wait since I put the order in back on May 18th. (I'll post pics later).

What I would like to know is, how can we get the air suspension lower than what is currently the default for Dynamic Driving mode? On the MMI screen it still shows 2 bars left on the height level display before it is as low as it will go.

I have tested the button in the cargo area to lower the back of the car to make the trunk more accessible and that does lower the height level bars on the MMI down to 1. However this process doesn't lower the front any further than what it was set to in Dynamic Driving mode.

Is there a way using a Vag-Com to get the front to lower down to the easy access position that the back half of the car is at and can this be driven in this new lowered position with out any wheel rub( I have the 21" wheels)?

Normally you can't. It goes further down automatically on highway speed only.

While we're on this subject, does the car remember what setting it was last left in? For example, let's say I drive with the car in dynamic mode all day and come home and shut it off. In the morning will it still be in dynamic mode at the same ride height?

The last bar is for loading mode which is activated via a button in the trunk, you can't drive with it that low.

Thats correct, it remembers the last drive mode you had it in from what I recall. I can check in the morning.
