Could the car self jack by setting the ride height at maximum high, set blocks under the jacking points, then retract the suspension to it’s very lowest setting ?
Then remove wheels …… ??

Have you tried it :)!

I suspect that once blocked no load on the system might make the car balk at trying to re-adjust to lowest setting but THB have zero experience in mucking about with air suspensions - interesting question though!

Works on my RangeRover Sport - but that’s a bit of a tractor…… I’ll ask my Porsche dealer to try it on one of their Tincans before I risk mine ;)
