Default Had to adjust each corner independently on mine. LF & RF different.

Find a level spot, then get out the level and the measuring stick and start adjusting.

Default Same here...

I drove the car into my warehouse and adjusted each corner differently to equal it all out. Just to be safe, I drove around the parking lot between each adjustment (overkill maybe?). Once I got it all level at 402, I adjusted the height lower.

Default The measurement of 402..

refers to the 402MM from the center of the wheel to the lip of the fender while at level two.

Level two is the "home" position for the adjustment when you log into the system with your VAG-COM cable and software.

As the other's have posted, get to a very level spot. Don't have any added weight in the car. Start by going up to level 4 let it rest a minute or so, then down to level 1...let it rest and settle. The go to level 2 and take your measurments.

Once you see what you are at, then log in with the VAG-COM and make the adjustments to get all for corners at 402. Repeat the "leveling our" process, 4-1-2. (this is my personal methood). Then check your measurments.

IIRC, the variation between corners can be as much as 1/2 inch.

Adjust if needed and then you are ready to do your actual 402 mod.
