It's best to measure between the wheel Center and the lip of the wheel arch.

Compare them.

First raise it to off road then then down to normal to it will be the best reading.

IF you have an idd tool you can recalibrate it

No mate , Is yours the same ? When the engine is running it seems to sit level but when parked up looks a bit lower on the front passenger side.

The red and white rectangles don't line up perfectly but they seem to vary depending on the camber of the road etc. I had no errors when checked the other day and no dash warnings or anything. Just wondered if a little difference is normal or what the blocks are trying to tell us?

mine sometimes looks like that, i dont think the display is that accurate. My understanding is its more of a guide to let you know when you're at the limit of travel when extreme off-roading. They do flash if they detect a problem.

Mine also sits slightly low on the passenger side but seems to level itself once traveling and some mornings will level itself up just after starting the engine, we've all probably got a slight leak, or, i suspect with mine that it needs a re-calibration too.
