Default Anything need to take care when driving with adaptive air suspension

When I stop the car, I found it sometimes upper a little bit and somtimes lower a little bit. Is it normal?

Anything I have to take care on the suspension?

Nope, nothing. It will adjust itself according to the setting you have selected, including lowering and raising at certain speeds. It may also correct itself according the load distribution in the car to maintain a consistent levelness.

Thanks, but I found that it upper or lower itself not because of the speed. Sometimes when I stopped the car because of the traffic, it suddenly upper a little bit or lower a little bit...

Hope this is normal...

Default 2nd that

and will not reset level with doors open loading or unloading so if everyone piles out and you look at it it can be quite high. Close doors and wait... after a few seconds it will reset.

Default Mine does the same. At first it can feel strange when the front dips down or goes up

when you are at a complete stop. Now I'm used to it.

Not when you are driving but be sure to put it in jack mode when putting it up on a rack at a shop.
