Can anyone help me out with the IVA ride height settings pls? I've scanned the manual, but can't seem to see it.... obviously I'm being dense! Does anyone know the measurements and at what point they're taken (i.e. bottom of front spoiler or a point on the chassis)?

Under each axle.
Front 110mm
Rear 160mm

Should be fine.

Those ride height figures are the Factory ones.
Was there a specific reason for asking about 'IVA ride height'?

There is no ride height specified for the test but in my experience the brake test rollers at my local test station are quite deep and nearly beached a Westfield XTR2 I took there for test.

Thanks chaps! I thought I was going mad not being able to find a specific ride height requirement in the IVA manual, appreciate the feedback.

i recon there might be a min in there somewhere.. it would be dangerous to have a car running 100 mm above the road.. the Gumpert is 75mm and GT2RS 95mm but there has to be a min?

Mot they can use a Tapley to measuring braking if car not suitable for the rollers... My tyres were to wide..:0) hehe that was a talking point!!

hi i spoke to the factory the other day about the same thing,they recomend setting the front ride height to 140mm just for the iva test only,with headlamps set accordingly, then reset to 110mm,once its past, plus readjust headlamps to suit.
