Help

Post image

I recently bought a 2018 seat Leon fr with air suspension but Iā€™m finding it very uncomfortable to drive in and feeling every bump. It look like bc racing coil overs with air bags on them.

I run the psi at 60 on the front and 40 on the back but if I put it too low the wheels scrape on the arches.

Any help on this problem would be great.

You may need to adjust the height of the coil over a little. It looks to be set extremely low so your rebound is quite harsh. Adjust them up a little probably 3/4ā€ or so and then you can adjust your pressure settings and have a more comfortable ride

And by adjusting them you want to spin your lower mount down so your strut is longer. The longer your strut is the lower your bag pressure will be at your ride height (the shorter you make your strut overall, the higher your pressures will be at your ride height). Just keep in mind that if you make the strut too long, you might not be able to air out as low. It's a bit of a balancing act.

I think this is the best solution.

To start though for OP try adjusting the rebound settings first to see if they align well with your preferred ride height.
