Changing suspension

If it’s DCC you’ll need a DCC delete kit so the car doenst flag up errors.
If you have LED’s you’ll also need to have the level sensor reset. Seat cheap out with only one sensor at the rear, so even though the front is lowered to, it’ll dip the lights as if your boot has an elephant sat in it.
Other that that I believe you are good to go.

Thank you, do you know where I can get a DCC delete kit?

The suppliers of the suspension can usually provide it. Not sure if bilstein make one, but KW certainly do. Doesn’t need to match the suspension make.
As above KW are one of the only manufacturers we know who make one. Let me know if you need any info or prices.

Is it worth losing the DCC for upgraded b16 bilstein coilovers?
And do you know what I will be losing by doing the DCC delete?

That personal opinion really but I think it is yes.
You'd lose the ability to switch between comfort, normal and sport with DCC.

Does that mean I will lose the ability to change anything from comfort to sport? (Like will it still work when I press the button in the car for the steering or engine or diff)

I've had my car remapped and it works in cupra mode, does this mean I will lose my remap because I won't be able to change the driving profile?

So what setting will everything be on when I do the delete? Like the steering, diff, engine

With a low electronic damping cancellation kit will that just delete the suspension electrics and let me keep all the other stuff like the steering and engine and diff?

I don't know but that would be my expectation, all you have done is removed the connection from the ECU To the Damper's.
Thus when you change the cars settings to Cupra I would expect everything to change except the suspension (as that is no longer connected)
The KW Kit also stops you getting error messages (which you will get if you dont fit them).

All the DCC delete does is trick the car into thinking the DCC is still connected, simply to stop error messages coming up on the car to say your suspension isn’t working. All the other features of the driver profile remain unchanged.
Personally wouldn’t want to lose the DCC and will be saving up for the more expensive bilstein/KW setup that plugs into the DCC still
Purely as I want it to still be comfortable.

Where do they do suspension that plugs straight in?All the DCC delete does is trick the car into thinking the DCC is still connected, simply to stop error messages coming up on the car to say your suspension isn’t working. All the other features of the driver profile remain unchanged.

So if it plugs straight in I will be able to keep all my DCC functions?

Yes.
Anyone who supplies Bilstein or KW suspension will be able to get hold of the DCC version that adjusts the dampening the same way the standard suspension does. But expect to pay double the cost of normal coil overs. Think they’re about £2k
But you said in an earlier post that I will lose all the DCC functions like the steering, engine and diff, but now your saying that I will only lose suspension features not all of the DCC. I'm very confused

I was meaning in terms of the suspension, so comfort, normal and sport would be gone.
