Geofenced suspension locations no longer working...

    Ever since I got it back from service a few weeks ago after they fixed my front right CV joint for the 4th time.

    When I come home, the car no longer auto raises and I have to manually raise the suspension. Each time I do, it shows the saving location with x to the upper righter of the control but it never works when I leave and come back.

    Any ideas?

    The other odd thing is when I get into the car, it's in highest(because I set it there) but as soon as I start to back out, the suspension goes from highest to lowest within a few feet of moving.

    Very strange.

    I went ahead and deleted it by pressing x, drove off, came back, raised it to let it save, parked car, got in car, drove off(didn't lower until I got up to speed good sign), then came back and it worked!

    The geofencing feature could use improvements - since most of the time I manually change the suspension is for single-use, such as driving through some high water at an intersection or when parking next to a curb, and don't intend for the vehicle to raise suspension every time I drive through those areas.

    Suggested improvements:
    • Add a setting to enable/disable automatic saving of location for suspension changes
    • Pop up a window requiring the driver to confirm a new location is to be saved when the suspension changes (like what is done when changing seat/mirror position)
    • Display the list of saved suspension locations, and allow deletion of locations that are not of interest
    The current method of automatically changing the suspension and providing only a few seconds to delete the saved location doesn't provide enough time to do the deletion - which requires noticing the suspension is being changed, bringing up the settings display, selecting the suspension tab, and then clicking on the "delete location" button.
