    He measured from hub to top of wheel arch.
    The flat tyre is on the bottom ...no difference in tyre pressures....LOL

    I know there have been a few issues where new owners have had tyres wear very quickly due to miss-alignment from the factory/boat ride over which may add to the problems.

      You will want these settings to pass on to your alignment shop after you have any suspension work done to your car as well.

      The Scirocco R settings in the right column are for the adaptive suspension as well, confirmed with the PR codes listed by Graeme86 for me.

        The figures were from centre of hub to underside of the guard so tyre pressures have no effect as mentioned above....
        In the end... it was an interesting observation... I never mentioned taking it back to the dealer...
        I also didnt suggest it should be perfectly level front to rear... talk about people jumping to conclusions...

        It was measured to provide a before and after analysis for Eibach... and myself... and 9 mm is a reasonable difference when the springs themselves supposedly drop the ride height by 15mm front and 10 mm rear...

        I guess all will be revealed when the springs have been fitted....

        As for settling... they are not going to settle any further than they are now in the short term... especially in a static position...
        And yes... it was on level ground... half a tank of fuel, no driver, nothing in the car etc etc...

        Thanks for the Alignment info Al... that will be usefull.
