Lowering Audi Q7 & Q8 4M Air Suspension While Stationary

The Q7 and Q8 look particularly massive when stationary – a low position completely changes their appearance. DropIT! V1 automatically lowers the standard air suspension via OBD, without any wiring or permanent coding.

DropIT! V1 OBD module for Audi Q7 and Q8 4M air suspension

Supported Audi SUV Models

  • Audi Q7 and SQ7 4M
  • Audi Q8, SQ8 and RS Q8 4M

Your vehicle must be equipped with the standard air suspension ex-works. Q7 and Q8 use different DropIT! variants, which you select directly on the product page.

Check SFD2/UNECE for Q7 and Q8

Vehicles up to early 2023 are generally compatible without SFD2 inspection. Model year 2024 and some vehicles from mid-2023 may have the new diagnostic protection.

  • NI0: uncritical according to current status
  • NI1, NI7, NI8 or NI9: clarify compatibility before purchase
  • Diagnostic message "SFD2" or "UNECE": not compatible

You can usually find the PR code in the service booklet or on the vehicle data carrier. If unsure, inquire before ordering.

Lowering without installation on the chassis

In contrast to permanently installed control units or solutions on height sensors, DropIT! V1 is only connected to the OBD interface. The automatic sequence first lowers the front axle and then the rear axle.

The brake is not needed for this. A short tap on the brake serves exclusively as an optional stop for the active axle.

Ideal for meetings and vehicle photography

  • Significantly lower stance
  • No app and no additional coding software
  • No permanent installation
  • Can be removed without leaving any residue
  • Original chassis control remains unchanged
