yes, i used piwis3 at porsche dealer without sucess to erase the error. After that, we decided to release the height sensor joint, leave disconected and to adjust manually, until achieve OEM height. For our surprise, It worked.
after all the trouble, we solved the problem with new joints, bigger than the OEM.

Does anyone have the Techarts installed? Not the HAS, just the regular springs. I personally like the height the H&R puts you at. The stock photos from Techart are not consistent as one car looks considerably higher than the other. Cannot find any pics of an end user car with the Techart springs and it looks as though all that responded here are using H&R.

2021 992 Base Lowering
I see that u have a base 911 992 pictured...everyone including H&R has told me that they only have springs developed for the 992 S and 4S...can u confirm these are the H&R springs and they fit the 992 Base? I'm confused because everything states they only fit the S and 4S 992. I'm considering the Techart HAS spring kit for adjustment, but they are almost 3 times the cost...please let me know.
[QUOTE=Cheshi143;16687569]I went with H&R for convenience. The ride is acceptable however the car is a tad too low. In retrospect I should have went with height adjustable springs on this platform. There is some slight adjustability on the OEM dampers in which you can adjust the spring perches. I left mine in the same configuration that the car was delivered in.
Here is a photo for reference purposes

Yes, please let us know if in fact you have a Base, and then if they're H&R Springs. Thanks....

My advice - if possible try to find an owner who has made the change and drive the car before you commit to the lowered springs. I put the H&R springs on my 997 base Carrera and regretted it later, as the impact on ride quality was worse than I expected. It may be totally different for the 992 but if I had to do it over again I would have driven someone else's car before committing. But I will say, it looked totally awesome with the lowered stance, far better than the stock ride height.

There are c-clips on the dampers that allow the perches to be adjusted (moved up or down a few mm). I suspect this is how Porsche is offering a few different ride heights based upon the package you select. I did not move my perches, but they did appear to not be in the lowest setting in my car.
If you look closely just below the perch there is a recess in the damper body which allows a clip to me moved. I did not do a ton of investigating at the time of install. Just took a mental note.
