Seriously? Another Inskip embarrassment.

The sensor is needed to let the vehicle know how high that corner is and in any scenario requires it.

The only way to avoid this is manual control either via a manual inflation device or using IID and manually lifting and stopping yourself (still potentially able to over inflate/extend).

See what I’m saying [emoji846]

The compressor could supply the same regulated pressure to all four corners in this event and disregard the height sensors [bigsmile1]

Another little trick, when you are stuck on your belly in sand (or anything else), is to lower the suspension and then the vehicle detects it is stuck and goes into extended mode. This is another 25mm higher than offroad mode, then if you hold your foot on the brake and pushing your height up lever for 30 seconds, it will go into super-extended mode, another 25mm again.

I have a piece of timber, cut to the correct length, I lower the car onto (on the chassis) to simulate this in the carport to get into super-extended mode, to wash the vehicle after a day at the beach.

I was at the 'Desert' on Moreton Island some years ago and came across three cars completely bogged to their bellies. Is was very hot and very dry, and the place does get super soft and it is easy to get bogged. I know that 'cause I did it myself once at 18 psi on Pirelli Scorpion ATRs in very similar conditions.


However, these guys were just clueless .... Jeep GC at the front, Prado trying to recover it and a LC100 at the back trying to recover both at the same time. They all would have tyre pressures closer to road rates I recon, as there was very little evidence of bagging (I looked closely once they got dug out). I saw they had Maxtrax and I asked how the panels had failed to help them....as that's exactly what I used to get myself out. That was the first time I used them and was very impressed with how easy they were to use. Then they showed me the Trax .... completely trashed .... they had completely burned the knobs off the panels.

To your point .... I handed them my shovel ..... LOL!!! No chance they were using my MaxTrax......

Hope you have a high roof on the carport.
