Default Lowering your car

Driving here in Germany if I keep my RS 7 in the Dynamic mode I tend to bottom out sometimes in small Villages. I always put the car in Confort mode when entering a town because of this. How much lower does that module lower the car compared to the Dynamic mode?
Thanks,
Nelson

Nelson, Hopefully someone who knows more than I can help out. Don't you have the RS7 Performance? I thought the car only lowered and raised with an air suspension (like the S7 or the regular RS7)? But the RS7 Performance has Sport Suspension with DRC which I thought didn't raise and lower like the air suspension models? I don't know - that's just what I have gathered from reading.

Nelson, mine lowered 7/8" all around with module for air suspension. Still raises in "lift" and "comfort" modes. No rubbing at all.

Hallo Homer,
Yes my car has the performance option. It goes down a little when in the Dynamic mode, I was told when I picked it up at Ingelostadt. Not sure how much.
Thanks,
Nelson

I checked my US version ('16 RS7 Performance). No change in ride height between comfort and dynamic. I think the only thing that changes is the shock rate, which is very noticeable while driving.

Is anyone who is running the ECS Tuning spacers having rubbing issues? I am running them with the 21" OEM wheels and finding that over certain bumps in the road, I get a pretty loud rub. It's not often, and probably not annoying or often enough to change, but I just want to see if others are having similar issue.
