Like a Bosch.

[@drivenbyboost]

That little drop made such a huge difference. So stoked for this S6 build my man 💯

[@jacdariper]

Great job and it looks really good for not physically removing any suspension pieces.

[@jomamasfavor8]

I didn't know you can adjust the air ride like this, you really do learn something new every day lol

[@user-SZ888]

Been waiting for the S6, love the red seats

[@LukeDouheret]

So stoked on this S6 build, thinking about copping a B8.5 S4 in the near future.

Great stuff excited for your build A6/S6 underrated platform 💯💯💯💯💯💯💪💪💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@jimmyapodaca7828]

That car is gorgeous. I loved your S4 and you killed it on the SQ5...excited to see what you do with this build.

[@paulkotecki8902]

Absolute massive help very stoked to do this just ordered the OBD tool and some spacers, might copy your build and go RS5 rotors on mine as well

[@mattramos6001]

How did it go? Just ordered. Regrets?

[@ansonathan]

Thank you, sir! I just did it. Very detailed DIY! worked!

[@viggenz24]

Loving the content!

[@TurboModifiedS4]

Certainly beats having to put lowering springs on it!

[@DoctaM3]

LOVE the energy in this one. When does FCP Euro come up with wiper blades for my Tesla. Wait, its not Euro but help me out FCP. Anyway, I love. this really cool mod. I wish more cars had this option--loving the S6 already.

[@luckyellaxo]

Got my OBDEleven for same platform coming tomorrow - can’t WAIT to do this… any issues thus far re: ride comfort, further codes, etc? Thx in advance and love the sled my dude!!!

[@_le_rob]

Beautiful car! The colour combination (inside/outside) is great! And keep up the good work. Greetings from Germany ✌

[@andrewbrion]

Worked on my 2014 S8. Lowered 10 mm. No issues.

[@brocknguyen2271]

Did you use the Obdeleven next Gen? Or just the regular one in the white case? Also do you need the Pro Version to lower your car?

[@doggedlydetermined7022]

Near perfect fitment without even trying too hard 😂👍🏼 looks awesome man

[@brocknguyen2271]

Great video! Will OBDeleven work with a 2018 Audi SQ5?

[@briangray9118]

Kinda heartbroken I saw this car for sale and debated on buying it buuut by time I made up my mind it was sold... glad it went to a good home 🙏

[@audiwankenobi361]

I am Audiwan Kenobi and I approve of this video!

[@alexel1562]

My A7 is also lowered. I dont know anymore how much, but it never show up any problems or disfunctions.

[@primesoodangerous3641]

Beautiful s6 bud

[@timespacedub]

The garage lighting really shows the red weave in the carbon fiber, good stuff man

[@shamdrew1010]

Thanks for posting, reading on forums, and thought about doing it to my S7. this makes me less nervous. Also it looks like you have wheel spacers, can you confirm?

[@IgnitionTube]

No spacers, specs are in the description!

[@maxthemadtuner]

Just picked up a 14 S7. Want to lower mine the same way.

[@bluemoth1879]

Love your videos man! I'm trying to get a 2013 A6 3.0 in 6 months or so.

[@randallplaisted4062]

Well?

[@sjkrausert]

Hey I have a b8 S4 and I was just looking into OBDEleven and Carly and the others. I was jusy wondering if you could point me in the right direction on which one is the best for the B8. I know you may not be familiar with all of them but you definitely know the people that probably have answers. I'm mainly looking for it do help me with diagnostics and check engine lights. The MOD part is also pretty cool.

[@martinlipchev98]

vcds 100%

[@zluo4377]

Hey man, much much thanks for you to upload the video. However, my ride is the 2020 C8 S6, upon checking the OBD11, there are no menu called Delete Calibrations in the Basic Settings, any idea what else I should be looking for?

[@russellhacker6029]

Love your chanel! Do you have the codes for preventing the "auto engine shut down" from happening? I was able to use the pre-programmed feature in my app for ny 2020 by remembering to memorize the last choice (turned off) but it doesn't show available for my 2023 A6.

[@amnadthhamilton4964]

Can you show how to calibrate the system? I have a 2015 S7 - the right rear is higher than the left rear. Thank you

[@icecubeninja7932]

Ahhhh you’re making me wish I didn’t get rid of my Q7 with air suspension! I didn’t know about this! Totally would have kept it a little longer :)

[@smity9089]

Did you use the obdeleven or the pro version to do this? Is it truly free to use or need subscriptions? I have an issue with air suspension fault code c104807 for level sensor. All sensors are ok. I'm thinking something got screwed when they jacked up the car to change tires and didn't put it tire change mode.

[@StevenCkoba]

Which tyres do you have on the S6? I have Rotor rims 20'' and i use 255 35 20 tyres but i think they look a bit slim and i have a lot of space in between. Do you think i can put 260 40 20 without any problem or maybe 260 45 20 (i think that would be even better).. ?

[@ryantheshortty]

Sittin perfect 🔥

[@asimferatoski5984]

Hey, Which OBDeleven dongle will I need to purchase in order to lower my '15 Q7 with Air Suspension. I saw the procedure but there are three different packages for OBDeleven. Starter? Pro? Any advice ? Thanks,

[@jc51373]

I have a 22 S6 going back and forth on VAGCOM lower, or buying a CETE. I love the idea of being able to set it perfectly with the CETE, but I tend to be a set it and forget it kind of modder so the VAGCOM makes sense and is a little cheaper to do. Hmmmmm, decisions decisions.

[@IgnitionTube]

I’d do lowering links if you’re a set and forget it kind of guy!! They go lower than VAGCOM and are cheaper by a LOT vs CETE. I’m running the TGK Motorsport ones on my SQ5

[@jc51373]

@@IgnitionTube I heard they set off all sorts of issues with the all the safety feature sensors. I need to look into that further with someone who has them. S6 just doesn't have a big crew to draw from that is modding them.

[@aly1996zip]

Can you do the opposite ( make it a little bit higher ) ? For a c7 allroad . At least not go lower then level 3 at more then 120km/h

[@sarmadalqaysi2199]

Can u do the celebration (adaptation) by obdeleven please, because i have problem with my audi a7 , driver side a bit higher than passenger side, i hope u see my comment ❤

[@ELKOBRA03]

I have a c7 A6 prestige is the height the same as a s6 ? I like how your car looked with stock height

[@b.nix_]

car is so damn clean.....

[@nb-s8]

Did you need to leave the car mode in auto, comfort, individual or dynamic before lowering?

[@calikayakbassin7828]

Do you need to do any kind of alignment after lowering?

[@mrk6090]

Great info but on my car „delete calibration for level control“ is listed but obd gives error „function not available“. Furthermore „calibrate level control“ does not exist in list of basic settings. Yes, I have air suspension. Now I am stuck and car shows errors for suspension 😢😢 what can I do?

I am stuck on a Q5 and do not have "Calibrate Level Control". I couldn't enter any values due to an error and wanted to finish without making changes. BTW: You state not to "delete calibration" (there is only "delete Calibration for Level Control" but you have actually done that at the beginning.

[@Nr1Focker]

i think you need too do "activate level control" in basic settings after you put in values in "adaptation" then you can do "calibration for level control" .

[@12384670]

Same here, after I delete calibration for level control, there's no way deactivate suspension service mode. Did you have any progress?

[@aiwoor]

@@12384670 if you delete calibration then the only way to fix that is do go to the dealer.
