Can you calibrate the sensors through ISTA software? I have my offside rear sitting about 10mm lower than the near side and I am pretty sure there is no leak from the air bag.
@Rick_Motorsport thanks for coming back to me. When you say check the sensor, do you mean through the software or physical check the sensor on the suspension?
Hey, my front suspension is also EDC, so that means i still cant lower my front with ista aswell? I heard that people get error if they put lowering springs on front edc suspension
Hi, Well explained. Can you please help, direct me. I have BMW F11 and I changed the air suspension 3 months ago. From last week the suspension dropped down. I took the car to a garage to calibrate the suspension. I believe that they did what you have explained. When I drive the car show up chassis restricted possible to drive, also the suspension dropping slowly. Fuse changed and the relay changed with the BMW original part
@@Rick_Motorsport that is what I taught myself. I have contacted Eurocart parts and told them about the the air suspension I bought from them. They said to contact customer service for air suspension replacement. I will get in touch with them and get the air suspension replaced
Hi. My car showing fault code "control time - lowering rear left" i replaced both airbags, pipes, sensors, air valve (i dont have any leaks) . The fault code presist. My rear suspesion is very high. Can i lower rear with this "trick" ?
Hi, My car sits down in night and then come back to normal after 5-7 hours and again sit down, can you help me out in this. Sit down means the gap between tyre and arch is very low and when you drive it feels like you are in bullock cart..
If your suspension is loosing air overnight, you might have a leak somewhere! Normally when there's a leak, as soon as you start the engine the compressor should kick in, pump the airbags up and lift the car to the normal height. You can't lower these cars more than 30mm on the original air suspension, otherwise like you said it feels like a go kart and you loose all the comfort.
@@Rick_Motorsport Thanks for your quick response.My car does not go to normal height even If I drive for half n hour, Today when I locked my car I heard some noise from underneath where the compressor is at the back, initially I thought Air bags but then i thought if they are air bag they should get filled as soon car starts like u said, now I am thinking it could be valve, is there any way I can find out. I get it checked from BMW they said both air bags leaking, valve and compressor and shock absorbers and what not quoted me £3000 pounds , Dnt know what to do, thinking to get Air Bag change first and if that does not work then valve or might start with valve, what you suggesst,
Hi mate, very nice video, i have the same car and i would like to increase the height of the rear suspensions because unfortunately the car touches on the ramp of my garage, how much i can increase the height from the ground? Now i have 18 '' rims and the height from the bottom edge of the rims to the fender is 630mm. (i don't know if it can help but i have also 19'' rims) Many thanks mate and Happy New Year :)
Great video, very informative, thanks! I've 2 questions for you. 1) is there a way to set the height on the fly after you do this? Meaning to stock and back to lowered w/o connecting a computer? Can this be coded in somehow? 2) Is it possible to purchase air suspension only for the front and connect to the existing system? I think you understand where I'm going with this ;) Thank you in advance
@@Rick_Motorsport Hi i know how to remove the 2 air things but i want to make it low as possible,would removing the air things drop it to far and bottom out on the tyres?
Hey bro, I wanted lower my f11 rear suspension.. mine is set to the highest I think from past owner lol... would you be able to help?? I'm from East London. Thanks bud
Thank you so much for recording this! Following your instructions I was able adjust the ride height on my F11 using ISTA successfully.
Thank you posting, this process worked perfect on my F11, this was the first time I used ISTA+ and your instruction really helped.
Hello, I would like to raise the rear of the car, what are the best numbers to write so that it is standard?
Hi, so if i want to lower my f11 i have to install lowering springs first and then follow this procedure ?
@eb4753 Hi, yes lowering coil springs on the front and then follow that procedure for the rear suspension.
Amigo.

Hi mate. Do you need use battery stabiliser or can you use just the Ethernet cable?
No need for battery stabilizer. I like to do this with engine on anyway.
Can you calibrate the sensors through ISTA software? I have my offside rear sitting about 10mm lower than the near side and I am pretty sure there is no leak from the air bag.
@stevecook1946 hey buddy, yes you can use ISTA, but I would start by first checking the sensor.
@Rick_Motorsport thanks for coming back to me. When you say check the sensor, do you mean through the software or physical check the sensor on the suspension?
@stevecook1946 yes check it physically.
@@Rick_Motorsport thank you.
Hello, whats the name of the cable that connects from the laptop to the BMW?
has anyone removed the air things completely to see if its possible to drive it low as far it goes?
Hey, my front suspension is also EDC, so that means i still cant lower my front with ista aswell? I heard that people get error if they put lowering springs on front edc suspension
You need to code out EDC if you replace with lowering springs

Is this for a car with Variable Damper Control ( VDC ) or a car with Air Suspension?

I think that you have a faulty wire, probably next to a plug.
Which cable do you use? enet or k+dcan?
Yes
It is air suspension or normal one?

@@phantomwins9 1st things 1st, plug a computer in and see if you have any fault codes at all.
@@Rick_Motorsport can i do it myself, what do i need, I mean any software to install and how do I connect to Car?
@@phantomwins9 are you from London?
Using your same example, what measures would you enter in ISTA if you install shorter Eibach springs in front suspension (-25mm)?

hy there!! great video buddy! does it work on F15 BMW ? tks
Hi buddy,
This procedure will work on all BMWs with air suspension.
Great video, very informative, thanks!

Hey bro, I wanted lower my f11 rear suspension.. mine is set to the highest I think from past owner lol... would you be able to help?? I'm from East London. Thanks bud
Hi bro, yes I can try to help you.
Is the car displaying any faults about the suspension?
@@Rick_Motorsport nah bro no faults at all. It's just high then normal.
my car is at the lowest how can you make it higher? it is bmw f11
In this case you enter your actual height and ISTA will make it higher to standard height (600mm)
Thank you for not leaving it slammed lol
Nice vid. Where did you get Insta+ from?
You can get it from Ebay.
So, i lowered my car like you. But how i can raise it?😂 seems not sameway than lower? Or mine wont work like it
Very good thanks
Need to raise mine as fed up with grounding out!
Is this for a car with Variable Damper Control (VDC) or a car with air suspension??
All 5 series touring models have Electronic ride height control. This is for rear air suspension
