Have you done a search, there’s plenty of info on it in previous threads?

We have it and generally have no problem with parking barriers.

To Search for VB Air on here it is more effective to choose appropriate chapters on the opening page and starting from the last page or the historical first, pass through the titles and page numbers until you have found what you are looking for. Unfortunately the search engine has some trouble looking for some things. There are a number of entries and individual posts. Possibly a google type search of the forum may help?

Vb Air

Got my van back today after having VB Air installed by Exploria. The 1 hour drive home was enough to convince me of the merits, the ride is soooo much smoother than the standard T32 suspension. Of course, being VW approved, it doesn’t go that low, and the lowest for normal driving is just 2 or...

I have a fixed lift (Seikel HD) and my overall height is 2050mm therefore good for barriers at 2.1m.

Standard t30 suspension with 235/70/16s puts me a smidge under 2m

We have VB Air with standard height settings and are very happy with it. We have a T28 pop top campervan and the suspension’s ‘car park’ setting drops the van from something like 2.03 to 1.95m. But sorry I don’t have exact measurements to hand.

In order of priority we use self levelling, car park, off road. We rarely use the sports mode.
