Exclamation How to keep air suspensions on highest?

Hello everyone,

For some reason when I change the air suspension on highest while I am stopped is ok but once I start driving it goes back to normal settings? I tried setting it up on the individual for comfort or eco individual but I was unsuccessful? Any suggestions?

The maximum speed the air suspension will maintain the highest setting, +40mm Off-road level is 0 to 30 km/h or 0 to 18mph. Any faster than 30kmh it will drop down to standard height.

If you have the Off-Road package and engaged X-Rock mode:

When the speed threshold of 30 km/h (18 mph) ("Rock" offroad mode) or 60 km/h (37 mph) ("Sand/Gravel" offroad mode) is exceeded, the ride height is adjusted with reference to the lower drive level in each case. When the speed falls below the defined threshold again, the initial level is automatically restored by raising the vehicle.

Enclosed is the air suspension logic and activation ranges.
