You have to wonder. If this highway lowering at 100 mph is programmed into the suspension ECU then surely this can be modified to take effect at a different speed. I don't particularly need the extra 23mm offered by the Matzker/Arden box - but I would like the car to lower itself at say 120 kph and return to normal suspension height at 110.

The module to add video to the screen of the rrs removes the lock for inmotion, so whatexactly you are saying is that, that he now doesnt have the inmotion lock that disables moving the navigation buttons when going faster than a couple of miles? |

When the RRS goes in to low mode dose it show by any lights (the one near the gear box) or anything like that? RRS TDV6 Gone but still around

NO to the above Having tested it one night on an empty bit of dual carriageway I can't say I noticed any difference. Other than it's rock solid at that speed which is good for such a big car. TDV6 - gone TDV8 - gone Audi Q5 3.0 Tdi Sline wef 6/11/10 |

I did the same driving to Dusseldorf weekend before last - drove several times, for extended periods at over 160 kph (until the wife leaned over and said: "Isn't that a bit fast???!!!" ). Did not notice anything or any display indication of a lowering although I did look for it. I can only assume that it did so. I agree that the car is very stable at speed. 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE, Java/Ebony/Cherry, Privacy, Sunroof, PTI, Premium Sound, SatNav, Cold Climate, Tow kit, CarStyle coded grill and vents, Tasmods, Stormers, JE Exhaust, Autobiography badge |

When I had the FFRR you could see the car lowering at about 65mph, not physically visible but there were flashing LEDs on the ride height adjustment button! I believe that on the facelift 2007 MY FFRR they have removed that feature now. The only drawback of it was that my mother occassionally used to drive the car and if she was a passanger and I was driving a bit enthusiastically she would not hesitate to tell me because she knew what speed the suspension lowered! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Indeed you do! On May 29th, 1999 - Montana replaced their non numeric approach to speed enforcement ("reasonable & prudent") to a numeric speed limit of 75 MPH.
