RENNtech"s V3 Digital Suspension Lowering Module for Mercedes

The RENNtech V3 Digital Lowering Module (DLM) is designed to work with all available Mercedes Airmatic or ABC (hydraulic) suspensions. The unit allows its user to have full control over all four corners of the vehicle’s suspension and adjust it in 1mm increments. Check out the video below to see the installation process and controls of the RENNtech V3 DLM.


The DLM requires no splicing or soldering to the factory wiring harness. The RENNtech harness utilizes the factory pins to allow a convenient and completely reversible installation. The unit also supports speed-dependant lowering that allows the vehicle to return to its factory ride-height at a pre-set speed. This process removes the need for the vehicle to be aligned after its been lowered. The user can maintain the factory longevity and still have the lowered look at low speeds.


All RENNtech DLMs are adjustable via USB using either Windows or Android OS. The software has three locations where the user can store pre-configured suspension setups for quick and effortless changes.


Note: On the SL 550 (R231) the ABC suspension system is optional equipment from the factory. The ABC suspension system is required for the digital lowering module (DLM).


RENNtech VAG V3.5 DLM Module Specifications:



  • Current Consumption: 30mA (60mA while plugged in to PC/Tablet)

  • Adjustment increments: 1mm

  • Maximum Lowering: Limited only by vehicle

  • Adjustment Methods: PC or Android (Tablet)

  • Size: 53mm x 73mm x 24mm

  • Weight: 1.2oz

Mercedes CLA250 Tuning Box Kit Installed with HG Intake

Our customer William just got done installing his VR Tuned ECU Tuning Box Kit for the Mercedes CLA 250 2.0L turbo and he is stoked on the performance increase!  The Tuning Box plug and play functionality gives the CLA 250 almost 50 horsepower gain over stock while still improving driveability and is warranty safe.  Plugging into the cars manifold, boost, and camshaft sensors, the Tuning Box micro processor takes over controlling the signals and giving the performance the CLA 250 craves for.  In addition the tuning box, this car also has a HG Motorsports cold air intake which really helps the turbocharger breathe.  Check out the pics and order your VR Tuned Tuning Box for the CLA250 Here.

Mercedes C63 S AMG 4.0L Gets Boosted with VR Tuned Tuning Box

The Mercedes C63 S AMG packs a punch of 503bhp with it’s 4.0L V8 twin turbocharged engine.  This is a ton of horsepower for the sedan and it can only go up!  For the Mercedes C63 S you can either do a ECU Flash or a tuning box.  The ECU Flash requires the ECU to be removed and opened which may scare some away as they just bought a $90,000 vehicle.  Even though ECU Tuning is very safe, the Tuning Box is a great option.  Its plug and play design connects to the cars boost, manifold, and camshaft sensors to give it a huge increase in torque and horsepower providing an incredible feeling.  The Tuning Box kit can be easily removed if need be for warranty purposes.  The dial on the back of the box can be set based on octane fuel ran.  We typically recommend the setting to be on 4 for 91 or 93 octane fuel.  With a gain of 90 horsepower and 120 nm of torque, you would be silly to NOT get this upgrade!  Check out the VR Tuned Mercedes C63 S Tuning Box Here.

KW Coilovers Install on Mercedes CLA45

The Mercedes CLA45 already has a pretty firm ride with the factory suspension.  This is definitely different than you would expect from a Mercedes-Benz automobile.  But as a car that drives like a Mitsubishi EVO and handles like a Subaru STI, the CLA45 is a pretty fancy, fun mini sedan.  All wheel drive cars tend to have a little bit of understeer and push but Mercedes got this right and the AWD system is beautiful under launch and in turns.  Wanting to get a better stance, slightly improved ride, we went with our number one suspension company, KW Coilovers.  KW Suspensions has been used on many of our past Project Cars from the Scion FRS, Ford Focus ST, Mercedes CLS63, Porsche 997TT, Porsche 991TT, and more.  The Variant 3 coilovers provide an incredible ride with their progressive spring rate and adjustable rebound and compression.  The patented bump stop acts like a 3rd spring giving the street ride a very smooth feel absorbing all the little bumps and when pushed in the curves, out handles the best of the best.  Here are some pictures of our Mercedes CLA45 getting the KW V3 Coilovers installed.  Want a set of KW Coilovers for your car?  Shop Here.
