I experienced some of this variation when I first installed the X74 suspension system on my 996.

Suggestion

Unfortunately, I don't know of any way that you could correct the problem on your car short of changing your springs or installing an adjustable coilover system.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My 996 seems to sit a little higher on one side than the other. There is about a .5 inch difference in the wheelwell gaps on one side vs the other at the front wheels with the drivers side being the lower one. I've measured this while parked with no one sitting in the car. The rear difference is less than .25 inches with the passenger side higher. It seems to me that if there was a way to level the suspension by balancing the front, the back would come in line, but I don't know if this is even possible. My C2 has the standard suspension with only 22000 mile. Any suggestions?

POST 2Original post

There is variation in the stock Porsche springs (a fact that Porsche acknowledges by listing ride height as + or - a small factor). I experienced some of this variation when I first installed the X74 suspension system on my 996. On my car almost all of the variance went away over the next few months as the springs "settled". Unfortunately, I don't know of any way that you could correct the problem on your car short of changing your springs or installing an adjustable coilover system. This lack of adjustability with the stock components also eliminates the possibility of having your car corner balanced.
