Operation Method of Touareg Chassis Lifting System
2 Answers
The function of the automobile chassis is to support and install the engine, some electrical equipment and accessories, forming the overall shape of the vehicle. The Touareg chassis is equipped with an active four-wheel air suspension system that supports all-terrain and all-weather operation, minimizing the impact of external temperature and air pressure fluctuations (such as in high-altitude areas). In daily driving, drivers may need to adjust the chassis height. Below are the operation methods for the Touareg chassis lifting system: 1. First, locate the chassis height control switch in the central console area of the cockpit. 2. Press the one-touch start switch in the central console to power on the vehicle; otherwise, chassis height adjustment will be unavailable. 3. Rotate the knob behind the gearshift to raise or lower the chassis.
Operating the Touareg's air suspension is actually quite simple. I use it daily when encountering steep slopes while dropping off and picking up my kids. After starting the vehicle, locate the air suspension button near the gear lever on the center console - it has up/down arrow icons. To raise the vehicle, lightly press the upward button, and the instrument cluster will display height changes (taking about 5-6 seconds to reach off-road height). For lowering, press the downward button - I always lower to the minimum setting when entering underground parking. Two important notes: The system automatically returns to standard height when exceeding 30 km/h, and the air suspension responds slower in winter, so preemptive operation is recommended. Raising 3-4 cm when driving on rough roads prevents underbody scrapes - this feature is far more practical than standard SUVs.
